Ammonium sulfate [(NH₄)₂ SO₄] has historically been one of the most extensively used nitrogen (N) fertilizers in crop production. Although its usage has declined over time, it remains particularly beneficial in contexts where both nitrogen and sulfur (S) are essential. Its high solubility makes it a versatile choice for various agricultural applications.
Ammonium sulfate offers several advantages:
– It contributes nitrogen in a form that enhances the physical and chemical characteristics of the soil.
– It boosts crop resilience to water stress, owing to its potent bactericidal and fungicidal properties.
– It strengthens the overall integrity of growing plants.
– It mitigates pest damage by enhancing nutrient absorption from the soil, thus lowering the
prevalence of pests. These attributes underscore the continuing relevance of ammonium sulfate in modern agricultural practices.
