What is the average cost to apply organic fertilizer vs. synthetic-chemical-based fertilizer?
Application costs are dependent on the size area to be fertilized for both organic and chemical fertilizers. For example, with our A-1 organic fertilizer products, if you have an area that is 100-ft x 100-ft in area, the product should be applied approximately 4 times per year at an average cost of $100.25(USD) per application. After four years, you should only need an application three times per year. The same area fed with a synthetic fertilizer would cost on average of $80 .00 (USD) per application and would require four applications per year. The same area could also require the additional cost of spring dethatching and fall aeration because the synthetic chemical products only feed, they do not also improve soil texture the way A-1 ORGANIC LAWNS products do. Even if fewer than recommended feedings of A-1 ORGANIC LAWNS products are used, plants, soil, and microorganisms will all still benefit. You just might not get the lushest results.
