Di-Ammonium Phosphate/DAP/di Ammonium Hydrogen O-Phosphate

Di Ammonium phosphate is a compound that combines two essential ingredients for plant growth: Ammonium and Phosphate. Diammonium phosphate is one of several water-soluble ammonium phosphate ions formed when ammonia interacts with phosphoric acid. In agriculture, it is used as a fertilizer.

Molecular Formulae- (NH4)2HPO4 

Alternative Names- Diammonium Hydrogen Phosphate

ADVANTAGES AND USES-

• Diammonium phosphate is used to maintain the pH of the soil.
• DAP fertiliser is a great source of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) for plant nutrition. 
• Because it is extremely soluble, it dissolves fast in soil, releasing plant-available phosphate and ammonium.
• For salty and alkaline soils, diammonium phosphate fertiliser is recommended.
• It increases the number of flowers and fruit sets, which enhances crop quality and production.
• It is free-flowing, dust-free, and does not generally cause storage issues.
• Recommended for crops like sugarcane, cotton, oilseeds, and pulse crops.

HOW IT WORKS-

• It works as an important nitrogen source in fertilizers.
• Nitrogen is important for crops as it is a major component that makes up chlorophyll.  

TIME OF APPLICATION-

• Use our diammonium phosphate at the start of the growing season for the best results.

RECOMMENDED USAGE- 

• It is recommended that 2.5 to 5 kg of diammonium phosphate be used per cubic yard. 

HOW TO USE-

• Dig a trench around 2-3 inches deep all around the plant, leaving 3 inches from the plant trunk. 
• Uniformly spread our diammonium phosphate in the trench and then cover the trench with soil.
• Water the plant till some water comes out of the bottom of the pot.
