About the relationship between land fertility and artificial fertilizer.
In short, generating fertilizer by heat can make the land addicted to it since it remove the natural fetilizer.

Particularly serious mistakes were made through the spreading of blastfurnace slag (so-called artificial fertilisers), whose intensified combustion once again robs the soil of its essential energy concentrates, the congealed oily sweetness, which the de-energised and finely pulverised slag then drags to itself from the surrounding negatively potentiated groundwater. Artificial fertilisers therefore remove the blood of the Earth's formative substances, which it must supply to the plants indirectly for the purposes of further ennoblement.
In this way too, those levitational factors were eliminated which triable the specifically heavy groundwater to maintain its precarious suspension on steep slopes. From this it can be seen how dangerous are the influences of fire and the lower-grade, expansively and explosively functioning temperatures that arise from fire-affected masses.
This vaporising heat-form, which gradually leads to the desiccation of the soil, is the best prerequisite for the development of parasitic bacteria, whose appearance should be taken as a warning sign that serious errors in motion and excitation have been made. If these errors can be rectified, then the parasites disappear automatically, because in a cool (fresh) soil, only apathogenic (health-enhancing) bacteria can survive.
It is therefore ridiculous, for example, to try to treat polluted water with chlorine, or to eliminate all noxious life-forms with poisonous gases, which would otherwise disappear automatically by changing the motive and stimulative influences. In the opposite case, the evil will only be reinforced, for through the influence of the above poisons even what is still healthy will become diseased.

19.4 The Pernicious Effects of Artificial Fertilisers
Contemporary agriculture treats Mother-Earth like a ***** and rapes her. All year round it scrapes away her skin and poisons it with artificial fertiliser, for which a science is to be thanked that has lost all connection with Nature.
In the latter part of the 19th century, apart from his other achievements, Baron Justus von Liebig (1803-1873), a German chemist, carr ied out a great deal of research into the elements and chemicals required by plants for growth, no doubt in the sincere desire to rectify soil deficiencies and increase fertility. As in so many areas of science, however, analysis rather than synthesis is uppermost, the aim always to find the one factor responsible for a given phenomenon, whereas in reality all physical manifestation is the result of many synergetic influences.
In the event, Liebig determined that the principal ingredients for soil fertility besides calcium (Ca) in the form of lime, were nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), frequently referred to today as NPK.
Nitrogen is supplied in the form of urea (CO[NH2]2); ammonium sulphate ([NH4]2SO4) - a by-product of coal-gas production; nitrates, which are salts or esters of nitric acid (HNO3); calcium cyanamide (CaCN2), which is converted into ammonia by water and produced by heating calcium carbide (CaC2) at a temperature of l,000°C in nitrogen gas. CaC2 on the other hand is produced by heating calcium oxide (CaO - quicklime) which in turn is made by heating calcium carbonate (CaCO3), a substance occurring naturally in the form of limestone, chalk, calcite and marble. Potassium (K) comes inter alia in the form of potassium chloride (KCl), potassium sulphate (K2SO4) and disodium hydrogen orthophosphate (Na2HPO).
Phosphorus is obtained by heating calcium phosphate with coke and silica in an electric furnace and is introduced into the soil in other compounds such as phosphate (H3PO4), calcium phosphate as calcium hydrogen orthophosphate, better known as superphosphate (Ca[H2PO4]2H2O).
All of these products are soluble and the majority of them, sometimes in the form of slag, are manufactured from and as byproducts of what Viktor Schauberger called 'fire-spitting technology'. In other words, they are produced with structure-disintegrating and energy-depleting heat. In their final preparation they are either made into solutions for sprayed application to the soil or thoroughly ground into fine deliquescent powders, their deliquescent properties enabling them to attract moisture from the air or the soil in order to liquify.
As another means of turning waste material to profit, these compounds were quickly seized upon by various chemical and other manufacturers. Despite Liebig's later recognition and admission that the elements required for healthy growth were far more complex than simple NPK and that further detailed analysis was vital lest irredeemable damage be done to the soil, his words went unheeded and the production of artificial fertilisers proceeded apace. With their use, the height of cereals and health of crops generally quickly diminished, each succeeding application further depleting the fundamental fertility of the soil as its organic base was gradually eroded. Applied as part of a highly mechanised farming system using steel implements, large tracts of mid-western America were reduced to dustbowls as a result, forcing the impoverished farmers to leave their land.
Today the use of artificial fertilisers continues unabated, but slowly and surely and just as inevitably they will finally reduce the soil to a lifeless mass. Naturally, the manufacturers of artificial fertiliser will point to the enormous production that has been achieved with its use, but this has been a production of quantity at the expense of continually decreasing quality, of profit at the expense of life. Artificial fertilisers act like stimulants and prop up production like narcotics to which the soil has unwillingly become addicted. Like drug addicts, who can neither function nor survive without frequent injections and who, as their physical condition worsens, require more and more shots to extend their lives a little further, the soil too is dying.

From Implosion Magazine, No. 21 - written in Leonstein, July 1945.
Julius von Liebig invented so-called artificial fertiliser12 and as a result German industry was severely harmed, albeit unwittingly. We are concerned here not with a fructigenic fertiliser, but with the supply of a stimulant obtained from blast-furnace slag, which has a particularly injurious effect, although it was believed it could be used to good effect.
Artificial fertiliser is the principal cause of the sinking of the groundwater, not burrow-litter, the rotted vegetable matter in the collapsed burrows of small creatures. The reason for this is simple. The incombustible residues of catalytic elements contained in slag13 are absolutely essential for the activation of the metabolism of every organism. Yet they are almost completely deenergised by the annihilating influence of fire. As a result they act like magnets and set about robbing the groundwater of precisely those formative and propellant substances with a force equal to the fire that robbed them of their fructigenic elements. Without the latter, the maintenance of the groundwater's state of equilibrium on steep slopes is utterly impossible.
The pulsations of groundwater, the dynamic impulses vital to the metabolic processes of the Earth, are the biological consequence of cold oxidising processes. These generate the counterforce to physical weight, the hitherto unknown 'levitational force', which in turn gives rise to interactions between gravitating and levitating basic elements and thus to an increase in quantity as well as quality. With further interactions those oscillating movements arise that people normally refer to as pulsations, but have no knowledge of the origins or the significance of these actuators of motion.
These catalytic stimulants, wrongly called fertilisers, have the same effect as injections of cocaine. There is a brief blossoming followed by collapse. The end can only be staved off by stronger and stronger injections. This is the effect of the soil-destroying artificial fertilisers produced from blast-furnace slag.
