Phosphate fertilizers

[ 24.02.10 ]

MAP (monoammonium phosphate)

NH4H2PO4

MAP (monoammonium phosphate) is a highly concentrated granular nitrogen-phosphate fertilizer containing nitrogen in ammonium form. The product is nonhygroscopic, it is not dust-forming and not caked. MAP has homogenous granulometric composition; it is well-soluble in water. On the base of MAP any kinds of mixed fertilizers are produced.

MAP is the universal highly effective fertilizer, which is used for all kinds of soil and for all types of agricultural crops as the main and presowing fertilizer. The product is used in conditions of protected ground. It is suited for arid areas, which require much less nitrogen fertilizers in comparison with phosphate ones.

DAP (diammonium phosphate)

(NH4)2HPO4

DAP (diammonium phosphate) is a highly concentrated granular nitrogen-phosphate fertilizer. The product is no hygroscopic, it is not dust-forming and not caked. DAP has homogenous granulometric composition; it is well-soluble in water.

DAP is the highly effective fertilizer, which is used for all kinds of soil and for all types of  agricultural crops as the main and presowing fertilizer. The product is used in conditions of  protected ground. It is more efficient in spring and autumn at replowing of soil as for top dressing during vegetation period.

DAP meets the requirements of Regulation (EC) № 2003\2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council relating to Fertilizers and has the following quality specifications:

NP(S) 16:20(14)

(NH4)2HPO4 + (NH4)2SO4

NP 16:20 is a universal water-soluble granular complex nitrogen-phosphate fertilizer. The product is not caked, nonhygroscopic and not dust-forming; it has homogenous granulometric composition.

The main advantages of the product are good commodity properties for mixing fertilizers, better in comparison with monoammoniumphosphate (MAP) phosphorus solubility and N:P ratio.

NP 16:20 is used for all kinds of soil and for all types of agricultural crops as the main, presowing fertilizer and for top dressing. On the base of the product any mixed fertilizers are prepared. NP 16:20 can be used in conditions of protected ground together with nitrogen and potassium fertilizers.

Nitrogen in NP 16:20 is presented in ammonium form what follows to its hardly washing from ground  and promotes more intensive absorption of phosphate-ions by plants’ roots. The fertilizer contains sulphur allowing to increase gluten content in wheat as well as oil content in sunflower, soy and rape. Besides the product includes calcium and magnesium, which are very important elements for life activity of plants.

Enterprises of JSC «Mineral and Chemical Company “EuroChem”» are the only producers of this kind of fertilizers in Russia. NP 16:20 meets the requirements of TU 2186-002-56937109-2002 Russian technical regulation and has the following quality specifications:
