It can be crafted or purchased from Pierre's General Store for data-sort-value="100">100g starting on Spring 15th of year 1.

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

Crops which produce extra crops per harvest (i.e., Coffee Bean, Blueberry, Cranberries) will only affect one crop item per harvest. Crops like Corn, which can be harvested multiple times but only produce one crop per harvest, will always benefit from Basic Fertilizer.
