Product Description
Analysis: 0-0-22-11Mg-22S
Description: This branded product of The Mosaic Company is mined and processed from langbeinite deposits in Carlsbad, NM. Langbeinite is a natural evaporate mineral containing potassium, magnesium sulphate and sulphate of potash magnesia precipitated in an ancient ocean.
Properties:
- Available in a variety of sizes (SGN) and grades
- Granular, crystalline or formulated granules
- Beige to brown in colour
Advantages:
- pH neutral, so it does not impact soil acidity level
- Commonly used on sensitive vegetable and fruit crops because it has a lower chloride content than traditional potash, thus less potential for fertilizer “burn”
- Standard and granular grades dissolve gradually throughout the growing season, providing a season-long source of nutrients; premium grade has a lower specific gravity than other grades, highly soluble, and geared for short-season crops, especially in areas with cold soils and limited rainfall or irrigation
- Provides a source of magnesium and sulphur in addition to potassium
Application methods:
- Broadcast (surface-applied) or banded (adjacent to the seedbed)
Availability
Rail direct, available in a variety of sizes (SGN) and grades
