About Ammonium Sulfate

Ammonium Sulfate is a widely used nitrogen fertilizer providing essential nitrogen (21%) and sulfur (24%) for crop growth. It plays a dual role: enhancing nitrogen availability in alkaline soils and improving sulfur content for oilseed and protein-rich crops. Its quick solubility, low volatility, and acidifying effect ...
