Sam-Sam Calcium Ammonium Nitrate

Organic compounds and soil minerals provide plants with a natural source of nitrogen. However, this is frequently insufficient to meet the needs of the crops. When the amount of nitrogen in the soil is insufficient, this is the limiting factor for optimal plant growth. During the growing season, mineral fertilizers can be used to supplement this. Plants require nitrogen in the forms of ammonium and nitrate, so applying these forms makes the nutrients available for plant growth right away. Nitrates are the most efficient form of nitrogen and are essential for maximizing yields. Sam-Sam Calcium Ammonium Nitrate is a premium product that contains calcium, nitrogen, and ammonium which are essential nutrients plants require to survive. It contains 15.5% nitrogen.

Benefits

• Can be considered as near-neutral in its effect on soil pH
• For use on perennial fruit crops (where soil incorporation of lime is difficult)
• Contains equal parts of fast-acting nitrate-nitrogen and longer-lasting ammonium-nitrogen
• It provides fast-acting nitrate-N alongside strength-building calcium
• This product provides soluble calcium which is essential for cell wall resistance and improving quality and shelf life as well as increasing the proportion of marketable produce. Calcium contributes to improving plants’ resistance to pests and diseases. It promotes a good soil structure, a prerequisite for healthy rooting, and higher yields.
