Researchers Produce Chemical Fertilizers Proper to Iran's Regional Weather Conditions
“We produce all types of NPK fertilizers, specialized fertilizers for citrus fruits, pomegranates, palm trees, tomatoes, cold and tropical fruit trees, alfalfa, corn, wheat, barley and summer crops,” Nouroddin Goudarzian, a PhD of polymer chemistry and managing-director and founder of ‘Rouyesh’ company, told ANA.
“These types of compounds have recently become common in Europe and most developing countries, and in addition to controlling agricultural pests and reducing the use of agricultural pesticides, they play an important role in soil preparation and preventing groundwater pollution. Mass produced samples were supplied to the farmers and the results were completely satisfactory,” he added.
Noting that the field of activity of his company is the production of chemical chelate fertilizers, NPK and organic fertilizers with the combination of micronutrients required by plants and toxic fertilizers, Goudarzian said, “Thanks to having home-made technology and devices, it is possible to make any type of chemical fertilizer with any type of combination suitable for the climatic conditions, plants and soil of all regions.”
In a relevant development in July, researchers at a technology company in Iran had also successfully produced organic fertilizers using new and advanced methods to help farmers produce high-quality and healthy crops.
The company "Sabzgostran Mazar’ Giti", which is based in the science and technology park of Islamic Azad University, Najafabad Branch (IAUN) has produced organic fertilizers in line with its goal of developing and supporting green agriculture.
Erfan Hosseini Beheshti, the managing director of the Iranian knowledge-based company, told ANA that his company was established in 2012 with developing green agriculture on its agenda.
“Over the past years, focusing on research and development of new technologies, we launched several projects in the field of agriculture. The products and services of this company have made great contribution to improvement in the use of land and the performance of farmers,” he told ANA.
“Using organic materials and natural supplements in the production of products shows the attention of this company to the environment and the restoration of the soil ecosystem as well as the health of consumers,” he said, adding, “Employing advanced methods to optimize the production process of agricultural products has saved the life of living and useful organisms in the soil.”
He noted that living organisms are destroyed in the soil if farmers use chemicals.
Beheshti went on to say that the organic fertilizer improves the quality of agricultural products, and protects the environment against desertification.
