Monoammonium phosphate (MAP)

MAP has been an important granular fertilizer for many years. It’s water-soluble and dissolves rapidly in adequately moist soil. Upon dissolution, the two basic components of the fertilizer separate again to release ammonium (NH₄⁺) and phosphate (H₂PO₄⁻), both of which plants rely on for healthy, sustained growth. The pH of the solution surrounding the granule is moderately acidic, making MAP an especially desirable fertilizer in neutral- and high-pH soils. Agronomic studies show that, under most conditions, no significant difference exists in P nutrition between various commercial P fertilizers under most conditions.

Monoammonium phosphate

• Fully water-soluble
•  It increases the turgor pressure and the resistance of the plant to stress and diseases;
• It maintains the balance between the vegetative and the reproductive phase;
• It stimulates the growth of sprouts, when the plants are under stress from unfavorable conditions surrounding them (low temperatures, insufficient light), and it also encourages the blossoming and increases the size of the fruit;

It improves the qualitative characteristics of the fruits (the contents of sugar, color, consistency, durability during storage).

warning:

Use NPK fertilizer in horticultural and agricultural products according to soil, leaf test results and expert advice.

In irrigation systems with the right amount of fertilizer dissolved in the tank and used simultaneously with irrigation.

Foliar spraying with accurate fertilizer amount should be done in the cool time of the day.

NOTES

The doses indicated must be split up during the cycle.

Repeat every 7-14 days or more as required.

In the solution reaching the crops the product concentration

must not, in general, exceed 2‰, taking care to program different concentrations according to the sensitivity to salinity of the various crops.

It is good practice to dissolve not more than 10 kg of product for every 100 litres of water.
