Phosphogypsum

Phosphogypsum is a by-product of phosphate fertilizer production and a valuable soil amendment rich in calcium (Ca) and sulfur (S). It is widely used in agriculture to improve soil structure, enhance nutrient availability, and promote sustainable farming practices. Phosphogypsum is an eco-friendly solution for reclaiming degraded soils and boosting crop productivity.
Key Features
  • Rich in Nutrients: Contains calcium (Ca) and sulfur (S), essential for plant growth and soil health.
  • Soil Conditioner: Improves soil structure, water retention, and aeration.
  • pH Balancer: Helps neutralize acidic soils, creating optimal conditions for plant growth.
  • Eco-Friendly: Recycles industrial by-products, reducing waste and environmental impact.
  • Cost-Effective: An affordable alternative to traditional soil amendments.
Benefits
  • Enhances Soil Fertility: Provides essential nutrients and improves soil microbial activity.
  • Reduces Soil Erosion: Stabilizes soil structure, preventing erosion and nutrient loss.
  • Boosts Crop Yield: Promotes healthier root systems and improves nutrient uptake.
  • Sustainable Solution: Supports circular economy practices by utilizing industrial by-products.
Application
  • Recommended Use: Suitable for acidic, degraded, or compacted soils.
  • Crop Compatibility: Ideal for cereals, legumes, oilseeds, and horticultural crops.
  • Application Methods:
  • Broadcasting: Spread evenly across the field before plowing.
  • Incorporation: Mix into the soil during land preparation.
  • Dosage: Typically applied at rates of 1-2 tons per hectare, depending on soil conditions and crop requirements. Consult an agronomist for precise recommendations.
