Ammophos (NH4H2PO4) – is a highly concentrated fertilizer comprising Nitrogen and Phosphor, mainly in a water-soluble composition and it is assimilated by plants very well. One metric centner of ammophos substitutes for not less than 2.5 metric centners of simple superphosphate and 0.35 centner of ammonium nitrate. It is slightly hygroscopic and soluble mineral fertilizer, it doesn’t cake and well-dispersed.
Ammophos is used for amelioration of phosphate soil conditions in critical initial period of growing plants. Phosphor is a strategic nourishment element for agricultural crops and plants, especially at beginning of growth for spring crops when their week rootages have low uptaking capacity. Application of phosphor at the beginning of growth period helps to development a strong rootage, rapid formation of sprouts and leaves, increasing resistance to diseases and drought.
Lack of phosphor at formation period of reproductive organs of other crops hampers the development and delays the ripening of plants, causes the decrease of harvest and the inferior quality of products.
