Specification

Description:FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention is related to Emulsion-based liquid fertilizer. More particularly, the present invention discloses emulsion-based liquid fertilizer using carbomer that contains nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium (NPK) having at least total content of 30% w/w to 65% w/w.

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) are essential macronutrients required for optimal plant growth, development, and productivity. These nutrients play vital roles in various physiological processes within plants, such as photosynthesis, energy transfer, and cell division.
In agricultural practices, NPK fertilizers are commonly used to replenish soil nutrient levels and enhance crop yields. Traditionally, NPK fertilizers are available in solid forms, including granules, powders, and pellets. However, these conventional solid fertilizers have several limitations, including uneven distribution, leaching, and wastage.
Solid NPK fertilizers often suffer from uneven distribution when applied to the soil surface, leading to spatial variability in nutrient availability for plant roots. This non-uniform distribution results in patchy growth and yield disparities within the field. Moreover, solid fertilizers are susceptible to leaching, especially in regions with heavy rainfall or over-irrigation. Leaching leads to nutrient runoff into water bodies, causing environmental pollution and nutrient loss from the agricultural ecosystem. Additionally, solid fertilizers require multiple applications throughout the growing season to meet the dynamic nutrient demands of crops, leading to increased labor and resource costs for farmers.
To address these challenges, liquid fertilizers have gained popularity due to their advantages in nutrient delivery, application flexibility, and reduced environmental impact. Liquid NPK fertilizers offer several benefits over solid formulations, including improved nutrient absorption, uniform distribution, and reduced leaching.
However, existing liquid fertilizer formulations may encounter stability issues, nutrient segregation, and inefficiencies in nutrient delivery to plants.
Liquid fertilizers offer uniformity in nutrient distribution, ensuring that plants receive a consistent supply of nutrients. These fertilizers typically consist of a nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium source, water, and various additives that enhance the fertilizer's performance and stability.

OBJECT OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The main object of the present invention is to provide emulsion based liquid fertilizer.
Another object of the present invention is to provide emulsion based NPK liquid fertilizer contains carbomer.
Yet another object of the present invention is to enhance efficiency of nutrient absorption by plants and ensure uniform distribution of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and micronutrients in the soil.

SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
According to present invention, an emulsion based liquid fertilizer using carbomer composition comprising a stable emulsion comprising nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium nutrients, essential micronutrients selected from the group consisting of iron, zinc, manganese, copper, boron, and molybdenum, wherein the micronutrients are present in chelated or soluble form, surfactants for improving emulsion stability and facilitating nutrient absorption by plants; and stabilizers for preventing phase separation and maintaining emulsion stability; characterized in that the said emulsion having a shelf life of at least 3 years.
According to present invention, the nitrogen source is selected from the group consisting of urea, ammonium nitrate, and ammonium sulphate.

According to present invention, the phosphorus source is selected from the group consisting of phosphoric acid, polyphosphoric acid, ammonium phosphate, and mono-ammonium phosphate.
According to present invention, the potassium source is selected from the group consisting of potassium chloride, potassium sulphate, and potassium nitrate.
According to present invention, the surfactants comprise non-ionic, anionic, cationic, or amphoteric surfactants.
According to present invention, the stabilizers comprise polymers, gums, or natural extracts.
According to present invention, the pH of the emulsion is adjusted between 6 to 9 and as solvent water is used.
According to present invention, dissolving nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium sources in water to form individual nutrient solutions; mixing the nutrient solutions to obtain a homogeneous mixture; adding essential micronutrients, surfactants, and stabilizers to the mixture while maintaining agitation; emulsifying the mixture to form a stable emulsion; adjusting the pH of the emulsion to a desired level; and packaging the liquid fertilizer composition in suitable containers for storage and transportation.
According to present invention, the UREA nitric acid and ammonia contains 1% to 90 %, phosphorous source contains 1% to 90 %, Potassium source contains 1% to 90 %, Organic Components contains 1% to 35 %, Dicyandiamide contains 1 % to 5 %, Carbomer contains 1 %to 5 %, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride contains 1% to 5.
