It can be crafted or purchased from Pierre's General Store for data-sort-value="100">100g.

Basic Fertilizer must be placed on tilled soil before planting a seed.

Basic Fertilizer affects only the basic harvest, which means that extra crops gained at a single harvest (Potatoes, Blueberries, Cranberries, etc.) will be regular quality.

Chance for Quality Crops

Note that quality is determined at the time of harvest, and not at the time of planting. For crops that produce multiples at harvest (i.e., Coffee Bean, Blueberry, Cranberries), Basic, Quality, and Deluxe fertilizers affect only the first crop produced.

For the complete formula, please see Farming.
