Calcium Ammonium Nitrate (CAN) is classified as a straight fertiliser because it primarily supplies a single nutrient, nitrogen, to the plants. While it contains both calcium and ammonium, its main function and classification are based on its nitrogen content.

Then option B is the correct answer.

Dear sir, CAN is a straight fertiliser because it contains only one primary nutrient so it is Straight Fertiliser.

Complex Fertiliser needs two primary nutrients so this is not a complex fertiliser, its Straight Fertiliser.
