Manganese sulfate (MnSO4) is the most common of the Mn fertilizer sources. It is highly water soluble and suited for soil or foliar application. ... Manganese fertilizer can be broadcast, banded in soil, or applied as a foliar spray. Rates of Mn application are highly dependent on method of application.

• Compositional accuracy
• Improved crop
• Long shelf life

• Ferrous sulphate for soil application.

• 15 -30 Kg/Acer as per crop requirement.

• Useful to all crops like cotton, carrot, paddy, wheat, sugar can, groundnuts etc. Also beneficial for nursery growth.
• 21 % pure Ferrous sulphate (FeSo4 19 %)

• Ammonium Sulphate is a quick acting acidic fertiliser
• It contains 20.5 % Nitrogen, most preferred source of nitrogen in Paddy crop
• There is no loss of Nitrogen through leaching
• As it is resistant to leaching it is more suitable at the time of planting
• It contains 23 % Sulphur to take care of the crop's Sulphur requirement
• It helps the crop to utilize Nitrogen efficiently due to the presence of Sulphur

Magnesium Sulphate is a widely used agricultural input that supplies essential magnesium and sulfur to crops, improving photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and overall plant health. It is especially effective in correcting magnesium deficiencies and enhancing soil fertility.

🌿 What Is Magnesium Sulphate?

Magnesium Sulphate (MgSO₄) is an inorganic salt composed of magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen. It is commonly available as a crystalline powder or granules and is highly soluble in water, making it suitable for both soil and foliar applications.

• Chemical Formula: MgSO₄·7H₂O (Heptahydrate form)
• Appearance: White crystals or powder
• Solubility: Fully water-soluble

🌾 Agricultural Benefits

✅ Improves Photosynthesis

• Magnesium is the central atom in chlorophyll, the molecule responsible for photosynthesis.
• Adequate magnesium ensures efficient energy conversion and healthy green foliage.

✅ Enhances Nutrient Transport

• Magnesium aids in the movement of phosphorus and other nutrients within the plant.
• Sulfur supports amino acid synthesis and enzyme activation.

✅ Corrects Deficiencies

• Magnesium deficiency leads to yellowing between leaf veins (interveinal chlorosis), poor growth, and reduced yield.
• Sulfur deficiency affects protein formation and overall plant vigor.

✅ Boosts Crop Yield and Quality

• Regular application improves fruit size, grain quality, and resistance to environmental stress.
• Especially beneficial for crops like cotton, sugarcane, maize, rice, citrus, grapes, and vegetables.

🧪 Application Methods

Always follow crop-specific recommendations and avoid overuse to prevent salt buildup.

🌱 Soil Improvement

• Helps loosen compacted soils and improve water retention.
• Replenishes magnesium lost due to leaching or intensive cropping.
• Supports microbial activity and soil biota.

⚠️ Quality & Handling

• Choose high-purity, fast-dissolving grades for best results.
• Store in a dry, sealed container to prevent caking.
• Compatible with most fertilizers and micronutrients.

🌿 What Is Copper Sulphate?

Copper Sulphate (CuSO₄) is a blue crystalline compound composed of copper, sulfur, and oxygen. It is widely used in agriculture for its antimicrobial properties and as a source of essential copper micronutrients.

🌾 Agricultural Applications

✅ Fungicide & Bactericide

• Copper sulphate is a key ingredient in Bordeaux Mixture (Copper Sulphate + Lime), used to prevent:
  • Downy mildew
  • Powdery mildew
  • Leaf spots
  • Blights
  • Anthracnose
• It works by disrupting enzyme systems in fungi and bacteria, preventing their growth and reproduction.
• Commonly used on grapes, citrus, tomatoes, potatoes, mangoes, and cereals.

✅ Algaecide

• Applied in irrigation reservoirs, rice paddies, and drainage systems to control algae blooms.
• Copper sulphate inhibits photosynthesis in algae, restoring water clarity and preventing clogging.

✅ Micronutrient Supplement

• Copper is essential for:
  • Photosynthesis
  • Respiration
  • Enzyme activation
• Copper sulphate corrects copper deficiencies in sandy or leached soils, improving plant vigor and disease resistance.

🧪 Application Guidelines

• Foliar Spray: Mix copper sulphate with water and apply directly to plant surfaces.
• Soil Treatment: Apply to soil to correct copper deficiency and improve root health.
• Algae Control: Use in water bodies with care, following environmental guidelines.

Important Notes:

• Avoid using metal containers—prefer plastic or wooden vessels.
• Do not exceed recommended concentrations to prevent phytotoxicity.
• Always follow local agricultural regulations for safe use.
