How can we improve the fertility of the soil?

Most soils are naturally quite fertile, but to maintain this, sometimes fertilizers are needed. Organic and inorganic fertilizers contain a range of nutrients in different proportions. On most soils the nutrients that need to be added regularly are nitrogen for vigorous growth, phosphates to encourage flowering and fruiting, and potassium or potash for strong roots.
