Ammonium Phosphate Sulphate (16:20:0:13)
N : 16%, P : 20%, S : 13%
Packaging :50 kg.
Benefits/Advantages
- The Nitrogen elements present in Ammoniacal form which a plant can uptake easily has nearly 100% efficiency of use and remain available to crops for longer duration.
- The 97.5% of Phosphorus (20%) is in water-soluble form, highest percentage among available complex fertilizers.
- The Sulphur content of APS is 100% water soluble and thereby adequately replenishes the Sulphur deficiency in the soil.
- Overall nutritional value of APS is 53% that too having very high use efficiency and because of higher content of nutrients, logistically it works out to be economic.
- Since it contains 13% Sulphur along with N & P, it is the most ideal input for crops having affinity towards Sulphur.
- Sardar APS is adequately treated with anti-caking agent and therefore remains free flowing for longer period.
- It is the most preferred fertilizer in drill-sown areas.
- The combination of Sulphur along with adequate doses of efficient nutrients N & P, helps in improving ChlorophyII content and enzymatic activities in the plants thereby resulting in improved productivity and quality of farm produce.
Dosage/Recommendation
- It is an ideal fertilizer as basal dose and also can be used in top dressing for long duration crop.
- Recommended for cereals, pulses, oilseeds and commercial cash crops. However, because of having combination of Sulphur elements it has very specific importance for the crops like Paddy, Sugarcane, Banana, Oilseeds, Tobacco, Potato and all kinds of vegetables.
