Disclosed is a spherical fertiliser granulate, which contains magnesium, sulphate and urea, each with respect to the total weight of the granulate, in the following quantities: Urea, calculated as elemental nitrogen, in a quantity of 20.0 to 38.0 wt %, magnesium, calculated as elemental magnesium, in a quantity of 1.5 to 9.5 wt % and sulphate, calculated as elemental sulphur, in a quantity of 2.7 to 12.0 wt %, wherein at least a portion of the magnesium, the urea and the sulphate is present in the form of at least one of the crystalline phases of the formulae MgSO.sub.4*6 NH.sub.2—C(═O)—NH.sub.2*0.5 H.sub.2O (I) and MgSO.sub.4*4 NH.sub.2—C(═O)—NH.sub.2*H.sub.2O (II), wherein 1 to 20 wt %, in particular 3 to 18 wt % and especially 5 to 15 wt % of the magnesium contained in the fertilizer granulate, calculated in each case as elemental magnesium, is present in the form of water-insoluble magnesium salts. Disclosed also is a process for manufacturing the fertiliser granulate as well as the use of the fertiliser granulate as fertiliser or in fertiliser mixtures.

The invention relates to agriculture, to the stimulation of plant growth and as an additive to the substrate or soil. The composition activates plant growth and induces resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, reduces the frequency of damage to the root system by micromycetes. Composition The composition includes the frass of the insect Hermetia illucens, which contains minerals such as: nitrogen, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfur; succinate and citrate as an acidity regulator; and at least one carboxylic acid and/or at least one amino acid; and at least one chelate compound. The pH of the composition is from 5.5 to 10.0.
