Bing-Qiang Zhao Fellow, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Resources and Regional Planning, 2011, China's chemical fertilizer output reached 60.27 million tons (pure), accounted for 34 percent of world fertilizer consumption, of which many are blind due to fertilizer waste, of nitrogen fertilizer utilization rate is only about 30%. Fertilizer application of a large number of the attendant consequences are emerging, soil fertility reduced forcing many farmers to have to continue to use fertilizers heavily, thus creating a vicious circle. Therefore, the development of China's fertilizer industry must update the concept, break with tradition, the implementation of quality alternative to the number of development strategies, under the premise that does not increase or small increase in the amount of fertilizer to ensure China's food security through increased efficiency, and strive fertilizer supply in 5000 ten thousand tons or less. 

But how to achieve a number of quality alternative development strategy? The experts believe that the development of new fertilizers is an effective way to achieve the strategy. In a large number of new fertilizers, industry experts believe that the slow release fertilizer, the efficiency of urea and water-soluble fertilizer three main types of products the most promising. Slow-release fertilizers can extend the efficiency, increase utilization; efficiency of urea to improve the utilization of nitrogen at the same time, but also provide other nutrients to the crops to increase yield; water-soluble fertilizer is to adapt to future needs of the fertilizer integration of modern agricultural development fertilizer provincial workers.
