What term refers to the release of nutrients and nitrogen gradually into the soil over time?

  1. Nomenclature

  2. Acclimation

  3. Slow Release Ferts

  4. Soil Testing

The correct answer is: Slow Release Ferts

Slow-release fertilizers are designed to gradually release essential nutrients, including nitrogen, into the soil over an extended period of time. This controlled nutrient release helps prevent nutrient leaching, promotes more efficient nutrient uptake by plants, and reduces the risk of over-fertilization. Nomenclature is the system of naming things, acclimation refers to the process of plants adjusting to new environmental conditions, and soil testing involves analyzing the nutrient levels and properties of the soil. However, the term specifically related to the gradual release of nutrients into the soil is slow-release fertilizers.
