WHAT DOES FERTIGATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

fertigation

Fertigation

Fertigation is the application of fertilizers, soil amendments, or other water-soluble products through an irrigation system. Chemigation, a related and sometimes interchangeable term, is the application of chemicals through an irrigation system. Chemigation is considered to be a more restrictive and controlled process due to the potential nature of the products being delivered - pesticides, herbicides, fungicides - to cause harm to humans, animals, and the environment. Therefore, chemigation is, in general, more regulated than fertigation.

Definition of fertigation in the English dictionary
