Ammonia Nitrate (34.5-0-0) is a highly concentrated nitrogen fertilizer, containing 34.5% nitrogen (N), distributed equally in two forms: ammoniacal (NH₄⁺) and nitric (NO₃⁻). This dual form of nitrogen provides both immediate and sustained nutrition, making the fertilizer particularly effective for crops with high nitrogen requirements.
The nitrate form is absorbed immediately by plants, while the ammonia form remains available for a longer period of time, providing prolonged nutrition.
The fertilizer is ideal for basic and surface fertilization and is widely used in a variety of crops, improving growth and yield.
Features and benefits
Double form of nitrogen
The immediate absorption of nitrate and the prolonged supply of ammoniacal nitrogen improve nutritional efficiency.
Direct action
The nitrate form ensures quick results in plants that need immediate reinforcement.
Compatibility with all terrains
Suitable for neutral and alkaline soils, as well as for irrigated crops.
Flexible application
Ideal for basic, surface fertilization and fertigation
Ammonium nitrate is suitable for a wide range of crops, such as:
Cereals (wheat, barley, corn): Enhances foliage growth and increases production.
Industrial crops (cotton, sugar beets): Supports the development and improvement of the quality of the products produced.
Vegetables (tomato, pepper, potato): Enhances fruit production and quality.
Fruit trees (olives, citrus): Contributes to nutrition and productivity.
Grapevines: Improves vine growth and grape quality.
Indicative doses (per acre) and application methods:
Cereals (wheat, barley)
20-40 kg/ha, applied as basic fertilization and superficially during growth.
Corn
40-60 kg/hectare, in two doses: at sowing and during active growth.
Cotton
20-30 kg/hectare, before flowering.
Potato
15-30 kg/hectare, during planting and before tuberization.
Tomato and pepper
2-3 kg/ha per application via fertigation during growth.
Olives
1-2 kg/tree, applied in early spring or after fruit set.
Vines
10-15 kg/hectare, applied at the beginning of the growing season.
Notes: Exact rates depend on soil type, crop needs and climatic conditions. It is recommended to work with a qualified agronomist to ensure correct application and optimize yields.
