Organomineral fertilizers are the combination and / or mixture of organic fertilizers with mineral fertilizers. This combination provides the necessary nutrients for the development of the crops, being the organic matter, an enhancer of these minerals, besides an aggregator in the improvement of the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. The objective of this work was to highlight the potential, production and benefits of using organominerals in crops, such as: lettuce, arugula, tomatoes, soybeans, coffee, corn, cowpea, potatoes, sugar cane, eucalyptus, wheat and sesame. It is noteworthy that numerous studies prove the effectiveness of these fertilizers in crops, aiming at numerous agronomic parameters. In addition to the environmental liability, it can generate a lot of revenue with this product with growth potential in the world agricultural market.

Granular organic fertilizers have been increasingly used in agriculture due to the longer delivery of nutrients to plants and the milder impact on the environment. The aim of this study was to determine the energy, environmental and economic efficiency of granular and non-granular organic fertilizers. Four technological scenarios of organic fertilizer use were used for comparative assessment: (1) manure fertilization (16.0 t ha−1), (2) manure fertilization (30.0 t ha−1), (3) manure pellet fertilization (2.0 t ha−1), and (4) fertilization with meat and bone meal pellets (0.7 t ha−1). Experimental studies using the mass flow method of laser spectroscopy were performed to evaluate the comparative environmental impact of granular and non-granular organic fertilizers. Economic assessment was performed for mechanized technological operations of loading, transportation and distribution of organic fertilizers, estimating the price of aggregates used and fuel consumed, the costs of individua...
