The invention relates to a particulate urea-based blend composition comprising a urea-based compound in particulate form and one or more components in particulate form, selected from the group of nitrates, phosphates, sulphates and chlorides, and a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, and a magnesium sulphate, wherein the urea-based blend composition is further characterized in that it comprises an alkaline or alkaline-forming compound, selected from the group of calcium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, and mixtures thereof. The composition according to the invention has improved properties for reducing ammonia loss by urease activity in the soil and is in particular suitable as a fertilizer. The invention further relates to a method for the manufacture of said urea-based blend composition, as well as to a composition of kit of parts comprising an amount of a) magnesium sulphate; b) a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, preferably N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT); c) an alkaline or alkaline-forming compound, selected from the group of calcium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, calcium carbonate, and mixtures thereof, and d) optionally, one or more anti-caking and/or moisture-repellent and/or anti-dust compounds.

A formulation of a pathogen inhibitor or probiotic as a slurry concentrate of a hydrated metal oxide for applications in agriculture, aquaculture, and as an anti antibiotic in which the bioactivity, when applied by dilution, is controlled by a precursor of Reactive Oxygen Species, and the release rate is controlled by the particle size. The invention may include a means whereby the precursor concentration may be controlled to meet the requirements of the ecosystem, from the maintenance of an aerobic system, to killing pathogenic, anaerobic microbes, or producing sterile ecosystems. In addition, the metal oxide may be selected to provide essential nutrients for growth of the agricultural or aquacultural products.

The present invention deals with the formation of Natural Organic Nano-Fertilizers with the chelated nano-nutrients to balance plant nutrition; improve water holding capacity, soil health improvement, sustainable productivity and quality improvement. The present invention involves production of eco-friendly and low cost process for the synthesis of nanoparticles of nano-nutrients by utilizing microorganisms comprising of two lab adapted strains of Aspergillus species, one lab adapted strain of Lactobacillus sp. and lactate, gluconate and proteinate salts as a source of nutrient leads to formation of metal nanoparticles (Zn, Mg, Fe and P) with the size of <20 nms. The present invention increases 12-20% of crop yield, stress tolerance of the crops, nutrient mobilization increases and 3 fold increase in nutrient use efficiency.
