Ammonium nitrate NH4NO3 - GOST 2-85
|
|
Ammonium nitrate or nitrate of ammonia, NН4NО3— is a crystalline material of white color, which contains 35% of nitrogen in ammonium and nitrate forms. (Both forms are easy absorbed by plants). Granular ammonia nitrate is used in an ample quantity before sowing and for all kinds of fertilization. In less quantity it used for production of explosives.
LLC «Мendeleevskazot» specializes on producing ammonium nitrate grade B, GOST 2-85, which is used as a kind of nitrogen fertilizer in agriculture.
USAGE: Ammonium nitrate is used in any types of soil with all sorts of crop plants, as the main fertilizer in the period of pre-seeding application and fertilization.
The most effective usage of this fertilizer is observed in application for winter cereals during spring period. Thanks to its quality, ammonium nitrate is a rapidly dissolving fertilizer, where its ammonia part absorbs into the soil and makes longer-term effect as against its nitrate part.
Divided application of ammonium nitrate allows to reduce losses of nitrate nitrogen leaching out of the ground.
