CPC v2.1 Code: 34649

About other mineral or chemical fertilizers containing at least two nutrients (nitrogen, phosphate, potash), n.e.c.

cpc code 34649 covers a diverse range of mineral and chemical fertilizers that contain at least two of the three primary plant nutrients: nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. These multi-nutrient fertilizers play a crucial role in modern agriculture, helping to enhance soil fertility and boost crop yields to meet the growing global demand for food. As a key input for the 01 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities industry, this product category is an essential component of the broader agricultural supply chain.

Production process

The production of fertilizers under cpc code 34649 typically involves the chemical processing of raw materials, such as mined minerals, synthetic compounds, and organic waste products. Manufacturers may use a variety of techniques, including granulation, compaction, and blending, to create the desired formulations and physical characteristics of the final products. Quality control and regulatory compliance are critical aspects of the production process to ensure the safety and efficacy of these fertilizers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of fertilizers under cpc code 34649 include various mineral resources (e.g., phosphate rock, potash, sulfur), synthetic chemicals (e.g., ammonia, urea), and organic materials (e.g., animal manure, plant residues). Additionally, the industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment for processing, mixing, and packaging the final products. Energy sources, such as natural gas or electricity, are also necessary for the various stages of production.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by cpc code 34649 is a diverse range of multi-nutrient fertilizers, which are then distributed and sold to 01 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities operations, as well as to other industries that require soil amendments, such as 81 Services to buildings and landscape activities and 02 Forestry and logging. These fertilizers help to improve soil fertility, enhance plant growth, and ultimately contribute to the overall productivity and sustainability of agricultural systems.
