PROM
Phosphate Rich Organic Manure (PROM) — Phosphorus and organic matter in the same bag. Roughly two-thirds of the phosphorus in a straight phosphatic fertiliser gets locked up in the soil before the crop reaches it; composting rock phosphate with organic matter, and the microbes that come with it, releases it more gradually and keeps more of it available. The organic carbon is the part a soil run on DAP alone has been missing.
