Dry fertilizer

Fertility is the key to maximum crop productions. Top crop production can mean better profits for your business. For dry fertilizer we offer 46-0-0, 11-52-0, 0-0-60, and 21-0-0-24.

46-0-0 (Urea)

46-0-0 is one of the widely used nitrogen source in the world. Urea is a granular nitrogen product, which is 46% nitrogen. It is quick and easy to apply and can be incorporated by tillage or by rainfall. Urea is concentrated dry nitrogen that is on the market today.

Urea is 100% water-soluble and is mobile in the soil, moving with soil moisture until soil organisms initiate the nitrification process. Urea will then supply a continuous, long lasting supply of nitrogen to the growing crop.

You can reduce the amount of ammonia loss with this product by incorporating. Do not leave urea on soil surface, but incorporate with in 2-3 days especially if soils are warm. When weather is cool and winds calm, urea can stay o the soil for up to 5 days, without seeing significant loses.

11-52-0 Monoammonium Phosphate (MAP)

11-52-0(MAP) is 11% N (Urea) and 52% phosphate. It is an ideal combination of N and P for use as a starter fertilizer in small grains, row crops, tree crops, and forages. The mono-ammonium form reduces the risk of fertilizer injury to germinating seeds. The ammonium phosphate combination in each pellet enhances the uptake of phosphorus by the plant. The highly water-soluble phosphate goes to work quickly allowing efficient utilization by each plant.

MAP has a slight acidic effect which helps counteract nutritional problems in calcareous soils. It is also well adapted to a wide range of application methods such as preplant broadcast, banded at planting time, drilled with small grains at planting time, side dressed, or broadcast on pasture or alfalfa stubble. 11-52-0 is an excellent product for use in custom mixed dry blends on all crops requiring nitrogen and phosphorus. Its uniform pellet size, and free flowing dust free characteristic prevents bridging during storage.

Phosphorous plays a vital role in energy transfer, photosynthesis, nutrient transport, sugar metabolism, plant genetics, and cell division and as a structural component of the plant.

0-0-60 Potassium Chloride

0-0-60 is salts evaporated from seawater and is mined from deposits in the earth.

0-0-60 is low cost and easy to handle. Potassium contributes to overall plant vitality, and helps plants fight stress and disease. It is associated with water use and conservation and moves nutrient sugars through the plant.

21-0-0-24 (Ammonium Sulphate)

Ammonium Sulphate, with its nitrogen in ammoniacal form and its high sulphur content remains as one of the most widely used fertilizers in Western Agriculture. It works excellent with different methods of application and is exceptionally well suited as a top dress application of N and S.

The raw materials used in the production are ammonia and sulfuric acid. The end product is a white crystal. Ammonium Sulphate is an economical source of sulphur and is in sulphate form, which means it, is immediately available to the plant for uptake.
