What is the main purpose of adding magnesium sulfate to fertilizers? Does it also have nitrogen-fixing capabilities?
Thread Content
Dear experts, our fertilizer raw material is a fermented broth, which is then sprayed and granulated. Recently, the nitrogen content has often failed to meet the standards. Can adding magnesium sulfate help with nitrogen fixation? What is the main function of magnesium sulfate in fertilizers?
Magnesium sulfate is a soil conditioner; similar to ferrous sulfate, it is used to adjust soil pH. I’m not in the fertilizer industry; could it be related to temperature?
In other words, it can only be used as a dispersant; its nitrogen-fixing effect is minimal, right?
In simple terms, it’s about absorbing water, which helps to stabilize the product. Adding too much doesn’t harm the crops; plants need magnesium.
Adding magnesium sulfate only increases the amount of magnesium and does not have a nitrogen-fixing effect. Magnesium sulfate is an element that crops need.
