The term "muriate" refers to the presence of chloride ions (Clâ?») in the fertilizer. While chloride is beneficial for certain crops, some plants are sensitive to high chloride levels. Therefore, the use of MOP is often considered based on the specific needs of crops and the existing chloride levels in the soil. In situations where chloride-sensitive crops are grown, alternative potassium fertilizers with lower chloride content might be preferred.
Monoammonium phosphate (MAP) is a widely used fertilizer that provides essential nutrients to plants, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus. Here are some key points about monoammonium phosphate:
Nutrient Composition: MAP is composed of ammonium ions and phosphate ions.
It contains both nitrogen and phosphorus, making it a valuable fertilizer for promoting plant growth.
Solubility: Monoammonium phosphate is highly water-soluble, allowing for easy application as a liquid fertilizer or in irrigation systems.
pH: MAP tends to be slightly acidic, which can contribute to lowering the pH of the soil. This can be beneficial in alkaline soils or for crops that prefer slightly acidic conditions.
Fertilizer Use: It is commonly used in agriculture as a source of both nitrogen and phosphorus.
The ammonium nitrogen in MAP is readily available for plant uptake, while phosphorus is crucial for root development, flowering, and fruiting.
Application: MAP is often used as a granular fertilizer that can be broadcast on the soil surface.
It can also be dissolved in water and applied as a liquid fertilizer.
Compatibility: MAP is generally compatible with other fertilizers, and it can be used in combination with them to provide a broader spectrum of nutrients.
Uses in Different Crops: MAP is suitable for a variety of crops, including grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes.
It is particularly useful for crops that require a balanced supply of nitrogen and phosphorus during their growth stages.
Storage: Monoammonium phosphate (MAP) should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
Environmental Impact: Like other fertilizers, the application of MAP should be done responsibly to minimize environmental impact, such as nutrient runoff into water bodies.
Safety Considerations: When handling MAP, it's important to follow safety guidelines and use appropriate protective equipment to prevent skin or eye contact and inhalation.
Diammonium phosphate (DAP) is a widely used fertilizer that provides a high concentration of phosphorus and nitrogen nutrients. It is composed of two ammonium ions and one phosphate ion. DAP is a water-soluble salt and is often used in agricultural settings to enhance plant growth. Here are some key points about diammonium phosphate:
Nutrient Composition: Diammonium phosphate is a good source of both nitrogen and phosphorus, with nitrogen content in the ammonium form and phosphorus in the phosphate form.
The nitrogen in DAP is readily available for plants, while phosphorus is essential for root development, flowering, and fruiting.
Solubility: Diammonium phosphate is highly water-soluble, making it easy to apply as a liquid fertilizer or to dissolve in irrigation systems.
pH and Acidity: DAP tends to be slightly acidic, which can contribute to lowering the pH of the soil over time. It is essential to monitor soil pH when using fertilizers to prevent overly acidic conditions.
Application: DAP is commonly used as a dry granular fertilizer that can be broadcast on the soil surface.
It can also be dissolved in water and applied as a liquid fertilizer through irrigation systems, providing quick nutrient availability to plants.
Uses: Diammonium phosphate is suitable for a variety of crops, including grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes.
It is often used during the early stages of plant growth to promote root development.
Storage: DAP should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
Safety Considerations:
When handling DAP, it's important to follow safety guidelines and use appropriate protective equipment to prevent skin or eye contact and inhalation.
Compatibility: Diammonium phosphate is compatible with many other fertilizers and can be used in combination with them to provide a broader spectrum of nutrients.
Environmental Impact: Like other fertilizers, the application of DAP should be done responsibly to minimize environmental impact, such as nutrient runoff into water bodies.
Mode of Action
Due to immobilization of phosphate by mineral ions such as Fe, Al and Ca and organic acids, the rate of available phosphate in soil is well below plant needs. Chemical fertilizers are also immobilized in the soil, immediately so that only 20% of added fertilizer is absorbed by plants. PSB converting insoluble phosphatic compounds such as rock phosphate, bone meal and basic slag particularly the chemically fixed soil phosphorus into available form. Such organism not only assimilates phosphorus but also cause a large amount of soluble phosphate to be released in excess of their own requirements and saves P2O5 up to 30 – 50 Kg/ ha. Phosphorus solubilizing activity is determined by the ability of microbes to release metabolites such as organic acid (lactic acid, malic acid, gluconic acid, fumaric acid, succinic and acetic acid). Inorganic phosphorus is solublizedby action of organic (gluconic, ketogluconic) and inorganic acids (Hcl) secreted by PSB and decrease the soil pH. The pH of rhizospheree is lowered the bio-carbonates release (anions/cation balance) and oxygen/carbon oxide gaseous exchange. Phosphorus solubilizing ability of PSB has direct correlation with pH of the medium.
Target Crops :All Cereals (Wheat, Paddy, Maize, Barley),Pulses(Soybean, Green gram, Chickpea, Black gram, Pigeon pea Pea), Oil seeds (Sunflower, Ground Nut, Mustard, Coconut, Safflower), Fibrous(Cotton, Jute), Vegetables, Fruit and Plantation crops
Benefits to the crop
Increase micronutrients availability to plant from the soil like Mn, Mg, Fe, Mo, B, Zn and Cu in addition to P2O5.
Encourage faster root growth for water and nutrient uptake.
PSB produce organic acids like malic, succinic, fumaric, citric, tartaric acid and acetic acid which fasten the P2O5up take, maturity and increase yield.
Increase resistance towards diseases and drought tolerance due to rapid cell development in the plants.
Compatible to other beneficial microbes with the plant like growth promoting substance.
Reduce 25 -30% phosphatic fertilizer requirement
Method of application and dosage
Soil Treatment - Apply 4 kg/acre PREMIUM PHOSTER in 50kg well decomposed FYM/compost/vermin compost/field soil thoroughly and broadcast in the field before sowing/planting or in the standing crop.
