EXPERIMENT  STATION  LIBRARY 


INSPECTION  OF  COMMERCIAL 
FERTILIZERS 


MADE  FOR  THE 
STATE  DEPARTMENT  OF  AGRICULTURE 

The  inspection  of  commercial  fertilizers  reported  in 
this  bulletin  was  made  under  the  direction  of  the  Honor- 
able Andrew  L.  Felker,  Commissioner  of  Agriculture. 
The  state  inspector,  Mr.  Eugene  D.  Sanborn,  collected 
samples  of  108  brands  of  fertilizer  materials  which  were 
offered  for  sale  by  dealers  or  had  been  delivered  to  con- 
sumers during  the  year  ending  June,  1933.  The  general 
character  of  the  fertilizer  materials  collected  is  shown 
by  the  following  classification  : 

Complete  fertilizer  86 

Superphosphate  (acid  phosphate)  5 

Nitrate  of  soda  1 

Sulphate  of  ammonia  1 

Cyanamid    1 

Ground  bone   3 

Tankage    1 

Natural  manures  10

CHANGES  IN  THE  FERTILIZER  LAW 

The  Legislature  of  1933  enacted  two  important  changes 
in  the  fertilizer  law.  Section  1  has  been  amended  to  read 
as  follows :  Labeling.  Every  lot  or  parcel  of  commercial 
fertilizer  or  fertilizer  material  sold  or  offered  or  exposed 


2  N.  H.  AGR.  EXPERIMENT  STATION       [Bulletin  278 

for  sale  Avithin  this  state  shall  be  accompanied  by  a 
plainly  printed  statement,  clearly  and  truly  certifying 
the  number  of  net  pounds  of  fertilizer  in  the  package,  the 
name,  brand  or  trademark  under  which  the  fertilizer  is 
sold,  the  name  and  address  of  the  manufacturer  or  im- 
porter, the  location  of  the  factory,  and  a  chemical  analy- 
sis stating  the  minimum  percentage  of  nitrogen,  of  water 
soluble  potash  and  of  available  phosphoric  acid  expressed 
in  whole  numbers. 

The  following  new  section  1-a  has  been  enacted:  No 
fertilizer  or  fertilizer  material  containing  the  three 
essential  fertilizing  elements  nitrogen,  potash  and  phos- 
phoric acid  may  be  sold  or  offered  for  sale  if  the  total 
minimum  plant  food  nutrients  contained  therein  is  less 
than  fourteen  per  cent  by  weight,  provided  however  that 
natural  animal  and  bird  manures  shall  be  excepted  from 
the  provisions  of  this  section. 

The  chief  purpose  of  the  fertilizer  law  is  to  protect 
the  consumer  against  the  low  grade  products  which 
would  doubtless  soon  appear  upon  the  market  if  the  dis- 
tribution and  sale  of  fertilizer  was  not  under  state  regula- 
tion. The  value  of  a  fertilizer  depends  on  its  content  of 
available  plant  food,  i.  e.,  nitrogen,  phosphoric  acid  and 
potash.  The  presence  of  these  constituents  can  only  be 
determined  by  a  chemical  analysis.  To  insure  that  these 
constituents  are  being  furnished  bj'  the  manufacturer  in 
guaranteed  amounts  it  is  necessary  that  each  brand  of 
fertilizer  offered  for  sale  be  officially  inspected  and  ana- 
lyzed one  or  more  times  each  year,  AVhen  failure  to  meet 
the  guarantee  is  proven  by  chemical  analysis  the  prosecu- 
tion or  seizure  provisions  of  the  law  ma}'  be  invoked. 
The  state  official  charged  with  the  administration  of  the 
fertilizer  law  is  the  Commissioner  of  Agriculture.  All 
inquiries  concerning  the  law  and  all  matters  relative  to 
the  registration  of  brands  should  be  addressed  to  his 
office  in  Concord.

CONFORMITY  TO  GUARANTEE 

Seventy-nine  of  the  108  brands  analyzed  eqvialled  or 
exceeded  the  gnarantees.  TAventy-nine  brands  contained 
less  than  the  guaranteed  amount  of  one  or  more  of  the 
three  constitnents,  nitrogen,  available  phosphoric  acid 
and  water  soluble  potash.  No  brand  was  found  deficient 
in  all  three  constituents. 


4  N.  H.  AGR.  EXPERIMENT  STATION       [Bulletin  278 

A  detailed  suminary  of  the  deficiencies  follows :

The  total  per  cent  of  plant  food  nutrients  guaranteed 
was  less  than  the  total  per  cent  found  in  only  five  brands. 
Ten  samples  were  deficient  in  nitrogen.  Five  of  these 
brands  yvere  deficient  less  than  3  pounds  of  nitrogen  per 
ton.  One  was  deficient  8  pounds  per  ton  and  one  was 
deficient  12.8  pounds  per  ton.  The  greatest  deficiency  is 
equivalent  to  about  $1.50  per  ton,  assuming  the  nitrogen 
present  in  the  inorganic  form  and  making  no  allowance 
for  overrun  in  the  other  constituents  which  in  this  brand 
amounts  to  about  $1.00  per  ton. 

Only  four  samples  Avere  deficient  in  available  phos- 
phoric acid.  Three  of  these  deficiencies  amount  to  less 
than  fifty  cents  per  ton  and  the  maximum  deficiency  less 
than  $1.00  per  ton. 

There  were  eighteen  samples  deficient  in  potash.  Six- 
teen of  these  deficiencies  amount  to  less  than  fifty  cents  per 
ton.  One  was  less  than  $1.00  per  ton.  One  deficiency  Avas 
nearly  $2.00  per  ton  although  overages  in  nitrogen  and 
available  phosphoric  acid  make  up  one-half  the  deficiency. 

Ill  tlie  tabulation  of  the  analyses  in  the  following  pages 
deficiencies  of  one-fourth  of  one  per  cent  or  more  of 
nitrogen  and  one-half  of  one  per  cent  or  more  of  available 
phosphoric  acid  and  water  soluble  potash  are  shown  in 


Dec,  1933]  fertilizer  inspection,  1933  5 

bold-faced  type.  A  deficiency  of  more  than  one-half  of 
one  per  cent  in  the  total  plant  nutrients  guaranteed  is 
also  shown  in  bold-faced  type.  The  names  of  the  manu- 
facturers are  arranged  alphabetically,  and  under  the 
manufacturer  the  different  brands  are  arranged  alpha- 
betically or  numerically  by  formula.
