Tarun Tomar

Chemical fertilizers can contribute to soil erosion and compaction, diminishing its water-holding capacity and nutrient-retaining ability. This can lead to reduced crop yields and soil acidification

Sal Mangiafico

Tarun Tomar , "Chemical fertilizers can contribute to soil erosion and compaction". Citation needed. Or at least some kind of explanation.

Wylgner Pereira da Silva

Para melhor compreenção de tal assunto, pode se destacar a teoria da trofobiose. na agricultura atual, a aplicação de fertilizantes agricolas de forma descontrolada, causa um excesso de minerais livres no solo, sendo assim, essa bomba nutricional liberada, causa alterações fisiologicas no interior da planta, atrapalhando o processo de assimiliação de proteina, neste sentido, os minerais e açucares dispersos no interior da planta servem de atrativo para fungos e bactérias patogênicos, que podem ficar no entorno do sistema radicular. Por este motivo, recomenda-se dividir as aplicações de fertilizantes em doses menores e em mais vezes ao longo do ano, afim de avitar a volatização, lixiviação e a interferência no metabolismo vegetal.
