The fertilizer recommendation based on nutrient supplying power of soils and by specific soil, plant and climatic factors. Fertilizers are considered as efficient when maximum yield is acquired with minimum possible amount of fertilizer application. Fertilizer use efficiency depends on the ability of plant to take up nutrients efficiently from the applied fertilizer in soil, but also depends on internal transport, storage and remobilization of nutrients.
