Composizione typicale includono di nitrogeno circa 4—8 percents, phosphorous 1—2 percents, potassio 1—2 percents, e micronutrienti come mangano, zinco e copre. It also contains significant protein often 30—50 percent in de-oiled forms and organic matter that improves soil structure. Castor cake is widely used as a natural, slow-release organic fertilizer and soil conditioner, particularly in organic farming. Beneficios includono enhancing soil fertility by increasing nutrient uptake, water retention, a microbial activity, promoting healthy plant growth, root development, and crop yields, acting as a natural pest repellent due to insecticidal properties helping control nematodes, termites, and other soil pests, and it is suitable for all soil types and crops, often applied 10—15 days before planting for best results. It is an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic fertilizers, reducing soil erosion and supporting sustainable agriculture.
