Ammonium Nitrate Fertilizer | High-Nitrogen Solution for Maximum Yields | IGSAS

At IGSAS, we understand that the foundation of a bountiful harvest lies in the quality of your inputs. As a leading global supplier, we are proud to offer premium ammonium nitrate fertilizer, a high-efficiency nitrogen source trusted by farmers worldwide. With over 50 years of manufacturing experience, we deliver products that combine optimal performance with unmatched supply reliability.

Ammonium nitrate is the “gold standard” of nitrogen fertilizers, providing crops with a powerful blend of fast-acting and sustained nutrition. Whether you are a large-scale agricultural operation or a specialty crop grower, this fertilizer is the key to unlocking your field’s full potential.

Why Choose Ammonium Nitrate Fertilizer?

This fertilizer is a straight nitrogen fertilizer, offering a total nitrogen content of 34.4% . What makes it unique is its balanced composition: it contains equal parts of nitrate nitrogen (N-NO3) and ammoniacal nitrogen (N-NH4), each at 17.2% .

This combination is the secret to its effectiveness:

• Nitrate Nitrogen (N-NO3): This form is immediately available for plant uptake, providing a rapid green-up and growth response.

• Ammoniacal Nitrogen (N-NH4): This form is held by soil particles, providing a steady supply of nitrogen to the crop over a longer period, reducing the risk of leaching.

This dual-action formula makes ammonium nitrate fertilizer efficient for all types of crops when applied in spring, as a pre-planting application, or as a top dressing .

Key Benefits for Your Crops

1. Maximized Nitrogen Use Efficiency: The balanced nitrate-to-ammonium ratio ensures that plants get the nitrogen they need precisely when they need it.

2. Promotes Vigorous Growth: Stimulates rapid vegetative growth, leading to healthier, greener, and more robust plants.

3. Increased Crop Yields: By providing essential nutrients, it directly contributes to higher yields and better-quality produce.

4. Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of crops, including cereals, vegetables, fruits, and oilseeds.

Precautions

Ammonium nitrate is a stable and safe fertilizer when handled correctly. However, as an oxidizing agent, it requires responsible storage and handling to ensure safety . Please adhere to the following guidelines:

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated building, away from direct sunlight and moisture . The recommended temperature is below 30°C (86°F) with humidity below 50% .

• Segregation: Never store ammonium nitrate near combustible materials like hay, straw, fuels, oils, or acids. Also, keep it separate from other chemicals like urea and pesticides .

• Handling: Avoid contamination. Do not use sawdust to clean spills . Ensure good housekeeping and use appropriate personal protective equipment to minimize dust exposure .

• Fire Safety: In case of a fire, use large amounts of water from a distance. Do not use chemical extinguishers, foam, steam, or sand . Evacuate personnel and contact the fire brigade immediately .

• Regulations: Be aware of legal storage regulations. In some areas, storing 25 tonnes or more of ammonium nitrate requires notification to the local fire service and health and safety executive
