Uses:
- Suitable for top-dressing on all crops, especially in acidic soils
- Provides steady nitrogen release
3. Urea (46%)
Description: Highly concentrated solid nitrogen fertiliser containing 46% nitrogen.
Uses:
- Used mainly for top-dressing and irrigation systems (fertigation)
- Suitable for maize, wheat, citrus, and pastures
4. MAP – Mono-Ammonium Phosphate (10-21-0)
Description: A phosphate-rich fertiliser containing nitrogen and phosphorus in readily available form.
Uses:
- Commonly used at planting for cereals, legumes, and oilseeds
- Promotes strong root development
5. DAP – Di-Ammonium Phosphate (18-46-0)
Description: High-analysis nitrogen and phosphorus fertiliser.
Uses:
- Applied at planting for maize and grain crops
- Excellent for root establishment and early crop strength
6. NPK Blends (General Examples: 2:3:4 / 3:2:1 / 3:1:5 / 6:2:4)
Description: Custom blended fertilisers tailored to specific crop nutrient requirements.
Uses:
- Suitable for vegetables, fruit orchards, maize, sugarcane, potatoes, and horticultural applications
7. Potassium Chloride (KCL 60%) – Muriate of Potash
Description: A highly concentrated potassium fertiliser containing 60% K₂O.
Uses:
- Improves drought tolerance, fruit size, and crop strength
- Ideal for maize, sugarcane, citrus, bananas, and vegetables
8. Potassium Sulphate (SOP 50%)
Description: A chloride-free potassium source with added sulphur.
Uses:
- Used on chloride-sensitive crops such as tobacco, potatoes, grapes, and certain vegetables
9. Gypsum (Agricultural Grade)
Description: Calcium sulphate improving soil structure and providing calcium and sulphur.
Uses:
- For soil conditioning, reducing acidity, and improving root penetration—common in maize, fruits, and pastures
10. Dolomitic Lime
Description: A soil-neutralising agent providing calcium and magnesium.
Uses:
- Applied to acidic soils before planting for improved nutrient uptake across all crops
11. Ammonium Sulphate (21% N + 24% S)
Description: Nitrogen fertiliser with a high sulphur content.
Uses:
- Suitable for sulphur-deficient soils; used on maize, pastures, vegetables, and sugarcane
12. SSP – Single Super Phosphate
Description: Medium-grade phosphate fertiliser containing phosphorus, sulphur, and calcium.
Uses:
- Ideal for legumes, pastures, and as a base fertiliser in low-phosphate soils
13. Liquid Fertilisers (e.g., UAN 32%)
Description: A liquid fertiliser containing urea and ammonium nitrate.
Uses:
- Used in fertigation, foliar feeding, and precision application in row crops
14. Micronutrient Mixes (Zn, B, Mn, Fe, Cu)
Description: Trace nutrient blends essential for crop health and correcting deficiencies.
Uses:
- Foliar or soil applications for vegetables, fruit trees, maize, and horticultural crops
15. Organic Fertilisers (Compost, Manure Pellets, Humic Products)
Description: Naturally derived soil-enriching products.
Uses:
- Improves soil structure and microbial activity
- Used in vegetables, nurseries, orchards, and organic farming
16. Water-Soluble Fertilisers (NPK + Trace Elements)
Description: Fully soluble blends for fertigation and greenhouse application.
Uses:
- Used for high-value crops like tomatoes, peppers, leafy greens, and cut flowers
