For trout, stocking rates of 30 to 50 kg/m 3 are normal at the end of a rearing cycle, while for marine species, such as sea bass and sea bream, the achievable load is lower, between 15 and 20 kg/m 3. The total volume required for a raceway is calculated by dividing the total amount of fish in kg by the desired stocking rate in kg per m 3. [17]
Pakven 600 was commissioned in September 1993, which increased Engro's urea production capacity from 268,000 tons to 600,000 tons per annum. [17] It was an imported second-hand plant which was installed at a cost of $130 million. [17] In July 1995, Engro further increased its capacity by 150,000 tons per annum at a cost of $23 million.

Specifically, highly alkaline soils (pH~8.2 or higher) have proven to increase urea hydrolysis. One study has shown complete hydrolysis of urea within two days of application on such soils. In acidic soils (pH 5.2) the urea took twice as long to hydrolyze. [7] Surface residues, such as thatch and plant stubble exhibit increased urease activity.
Yara Belle Plaine Inc is a nitrate-based fertilizer manufacturer based in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, and is part of the Yara International group of companies.. Originally the company was established in 1984 as SaskFerco Products Inc., a joint venture between Cargill (50%), the Government of Saskatchewan (49%), and Citibank Canada (1%), to construct a plant near Belle Plaine, Saskatchewan at ...
A maize crop yielding 6–9 tonnes of grain per hectare (2.5 acres) requires 31–50 kilograms (68–110 lb) of phosphate fertilizer to be applied; soybean crops require about half, 20–25 kg per hectare. [21] Yara International is the world's largest producer of nitrogen-based fertilizers. [22]

Fertilizers are materials that can be added to soil or plants, in order to provide nutrients and sustain growth. Typical organic fertilizers include all animal waste including meat processing waste, manure, slurry, and guano; plus plant based fertilizers such as compost; and biosolids. [2] Inorganic "organic fertilizers" include minerals and ash.
To produce one kilograms of farmed salmon, products from several kilograms of wild fish are fed to them – this can be described as the "fish-in-fish-out" (FIFO) ratio. In 1995, salmon had a FIFO ratio of 7.5 (meaning 7.5 kilograms of wild fish feed were required to produce one kilogram of salmon); by 2006 the ratio had fallen to 4.9. [ 102 ]
