BENEFITS:
- Provides a high concentration of phosphorus, which is essential for root development (improving nutrient and water uptake), energy transfer within the plant, flowering, and fruiting.
- Provides nitrogen, which is essential for protein synthesis, chlorophyll production, and overall plant (vegetative) growth and development.
- Reduces nutrient loss through leaching and volatilization, ensuring that plants receive nutrients when they need them.
- Minimizes the risk of nutrient runoff into waterways, reducing potential environmental impact.
- Suitable for a variety of crops, including grains, vegetables, and ornamental plants.
- Works well in diverse soil conditions, particularly in soils low in phosphorus.
- By maintaining nutrient levels over time, slow-release MAP can contribute to healthier soil ecosystems.
- The product has an acid reaction in the soil which can be an advantage in neutral and high pH soils. Therefore MAP is used in preference to DAP on alkaline soils.
