A chemical fertilizer is referred as any inorganic material that is added to the soil to raise plant growth. Many artificial fertilizers contain acids which normally increase the acidity of the soil and interfere with plant growth whereas organic fertilizer increases soil organic matter, improves soil structure , improves water holding capacity, reduces erosion from wind and water, improves water holding capacity. The organic fertilizers have a great role over the chemical fertilizers in the following ways:-
1. Organic fertilizers are prepared locally . The cost of these fertilizers is much less compared to chemical fertilizers.
2. With Organic fertilizers farms remain fertile for hundreds of years. Now with the increased usage of chemical fertilizers, land is becoming infertile forcing most farmers to increase the chemical fertilizer inputs or leave farming.

it's about the characteristics of organic fertilizers and it wasnt my answer:(
Chemical fertilizers are usually harmful for the environment, since it's poison. Although it helps farmers protect their harvests, those fertilizers enter through the earth, polluting underground water. Also, when in contact with these fertilizers, some vegetables and plants are affected, which can result in food poisoning and such. The underground water polluted with chemicals, evaporates, forming clouds, and then falls, in the form of acid rain.
Organic fertilizers are quite the opposite, since they have no chemicals, they are not harmful for the earth.
Hope it helps.

Plus the hair has been found to be better in several ways! Go to pbs.org!
BUT the fact that rain and wind relocate a lot of these, and they run off into ditches, streams, lakes, and rivers on their way to the Oceans of the World!
Where their effect is really messing up things VERY BAD!
And 70% of YOUR air you breath comes from there!
