Disclosed is a process for making a fully water-soluble granule comprising humic acid and a microbial community composition. Disclosed also is a fully water-soluble granule comprising humic acid and a microbial community composition. Such a granule is useful as an organic aid to crop growth, particularly in applications where solubility is desirable or necessary.

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 present invention generally relates to nitrification inhibitors and compositions comprising nitrification inhibitors. The present invention also relates to use of the nitrification inhibitors and compositions for application to fertilisers, plants, agricultural areas (e.g. soils or pastures) to reduce or inhibit the oxidation of ammonium nitrogen to nitrite and nitrate nitrogen, such as the oxidation of ammonia- or urea-based fertilisers.
