NK Sulphur is a true granular compound perfect as a mid and late season grassland fertiliser where soil phosphorous index is high and soil potash levels need to be maintained. While primarily a nitrogen and potassium blend, the addition of sulphur enhances crop yield and quality in sulphur-deficient situations.
Product description
- Ammonium nitrate is the most efficient and predictable form of nitrogen for UK growers.
- Ammonium sulphate offers a readily available source of sulphur to the growing crop.
- Water soluble potash provides rapid uptake to support nitrogen use efficiency and plant growth.
- A true granular compound ensures even and accurate spread of all nutrients across the crop.
- Bulk density typical range 900-1000 kg/m3, average 960 kg/m3.
- The Carbon Footprint for NK Sulphur is 3.8kg CO2e per kg nitrogen.
The benefits of using NK Sulphur
- NK Sulphur contains sulphate, which is more rapidly and efficiently absorbed than elementary sulphur
- NK Sulphur contains ammonium nitrate.
- According to government research, ammonium nitrate is the most efficient nitrogen source and the ‘best option for the environment and farming’
- Sufficient potash in the soil optimises the benefits of nitrogen
- By applying potash during the growing season, autumn workload is reduced
- As a true granular compound, NK Sulphur guarantees even application along the whole spreader bout width, which optimises nutrient use efficiency and crop response
- NK Sulphur contains zero phosphate content. This means it fits a range of circumstances where high soil reserves or use of organic manures or biosolids/sewage sludge cake means no fertiliser phosphate is required.
