The first condition for the success in fertilization is to meet the nutritional needs of the plant throughout the whole crop growing period with balanced fertilization which takes the environmental and human health into account at the same time. Long-term and sustainable success can only be achieved in crop production providing plant nutrition management build upon this fact. Thus, healthy evaluation of fertilizer efficiency parameters is of also great importance at this context. The overall purpose of using efficiency parameters is to assure more economical, conscious and efficient use of fertilizers in agriculture.
