NPK Compound Fertilizer Formulation Principles

Core Logic of Formulation Sequence NPK compound fertilizer formulation involves two key aspects: the industry-standard nutrient labeling sequence and the practical raw material formulation sequence for production. The former represents globally unified standardization norms, while the latter constitutes scientific formulation logic based on raw material compatibility, production processes, and crop requirements. Only by organically combining both can efficient and stable compound fertilizer products be designed. The labeling sequence is fixed as nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (N-P₂O₅-K₂O), while the formulation design follows the priority principle of "total nutrients → three-element ratio → phosphorus source → nitrogen source → potassium source → auxiliary components." This represents the core essence of NPK compound fertilizer formulation design. Standardized Nutrient Labeling Norms The global compound fertilizer industry strictly adheres to a unified nutrient labeling sequence: nitrogen (N) - phosphorus (as P₂O₅) - potassium (as K₂O). This standard is clearly specified in fertilizer regulations worldwide, such as China's GB/T 15063-2020 "Compound Fertilizers" standard. The three numbers in the labeling represent the percentage content of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium respectively, unrelated to the actual sequence of raw material addition. For example, "15-15-15" indicates that every 100 kilograms of fertilizer contains 15 kilograms of nitrogen, 15 kilograms of phosphorus pentoxide, and 15 kilograms of potassium oxide, with total nutrient content reaching 45%, classifying it as high-concentration compound fertilizer. Meanwhile, "20-10-10" indicates the fertilizer emphasizes nitrogen supply, suitable for leafy vegetable crop growth requirements.
