Polysulphate: Perfect for NPK Production

Every farmer wants to see a good yield. Whether they get that or not will depend, to a large extent, on whether they plan, source, and apply the right fertiliser formula for the crop. Incorporating Polysulphate into granulated fertiliser makes a good yield more likely.

Nutrients Available when Needed

Responding to the right soil temperatures, air temperature and available light, root and shoot growth in crops make their demands on available nutrients. Any shortfall in available nutrients is detrimental to crop performance. NPK granular fertilisers are often the first choice to keep crops fed and incorporating Polysulphate into NPK blends helps achieve the perfect balance of all crop nutrients required.

Versatile Fertilisers

The effectiveness of existing NPK fertilisers is much improved with the addition of S, K, Mg, and Ca found in Polysulphate. It is compatible with a wide variety of NPK fertilisers allowing tailoring to the needs of various crops, soil types and climatic conditions.

Efficiency in Production and Application

As if the versatility was not enough, there are other gains to be made too. NPK fertilisers based on Polysulphate have lower production costs and energy requirements compared with traditional SOP or MOP-based products.

Replacing Filler with Nutrients

As much as 20% of NPK fertiliser is filler which is added to ease the handling, application or placement of the fertiliser. Replacing that filler with Polysulphate adds valuable extra nutrients, providing better value.

Advantages for Operators

Polysulphate helps granulation and increases output. For operators there are advantages: due to Polysulphate’s high crystal strength there is less likelihood of dust during production and handling.

Contributing to Yield Increases

Protecting the yield potential of the crop is key. For many farmers the main fertiliser raw materials will continue to be ammonium nitrate, urea, superphosphates, MOP and SOP. Compatible with all these, Polysulphate is the new alternative for use in NPK Fertilisers. It provides timely, and available, essential S, K, Mg and Ca. Farmers respond well to the offer of a cost-effective and efficient nutrient boost. The crops respond positively too.
