👨🌾 Introduction: A Trusted Fertilizer for India’s Growing Fields
In an agriculture-driven economy like India, consistent crop yield and soil nutrition management are vital for farmers, agri-input dealers, and fertilizer blenders. Among the most reliable nitrogen-based fertilizers in the world is Ammonium Sulphate (NH₄)₂SO₄—a simple yet powerful compound that delivers not just nitrogen (N), but also sulphur (S) in readily available forms.
Whether you’re in the business of fertilizer formulation, direct crop application, or bulk agri chemical supply, Vinipul Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. offers high-purity, moisture-stable Ammonium Sulphate—manufactured and packed in Mumbai under FSSAI, ISO & GMP certification, backed by export-ready logistics and farm-friendly pricing.
🧪 What is Ammonium Sulphate?
Chemical Formula: (NH₄)₂SO₄
Molecular Weight: 132.14 g/mol
CAS Number: 7783-20-2
Ammonium Sulphate is a white, granular or crystalline salt made by reacting ammonia with sulfuric acid. It contains:
- 21% Nitrogen (N) in ammoniacal form
- 24% Sulphur (S) in sulfate form
It is highly soluble in water, easy to handle, and blends well with other granular fertilizers like urea, DAP, and MOP.
🌿 Dual Nutrient Benefits: Why It’s More Than Just Nitrogen
Unlike urea or ammonium nitrate, Ammonium Sulphate provides both major and secondary nutrients to the soil, offering balanced crop nutrition.
🔹 Nitrogen (21%)
- Boosts chlorophyll formation for lush green growth
- Encourages vigorous root, shoot, and leaf development
- Particularly effective in acidic and paddy field soils
🔸 Sulphur (24%)
- Supports protein synthesis, enzyme activity, and seed production
- Enhances oil content in oilseeds and flavor in onions/garlic
- Corrects sulphur deficiencies common in Indian soils
➡️ Both nutrients are available in immediately usable form to the plant, improving uptake and crop response.
🌾 Key Crop Applications of Ammonium Sulphate
- Paddy/Rice Fields:
Ideal for water-logged soils, ammonium ions resist leaching and stay available longer than nitrate fertilizers. - Sugarcane & Maize:
Promotes early tillering, cane elongation, and juice quality due to sulphur’s role in sugar metabolism. - Pulses & Oilseeds (Soybean, Groundnut, Mustard):
Improves nodulation in legumes and oil content in oilseeds; boosts yield per acre. - Onion, Garlic, Cabbage:
Sulphur enhances flavor, color, and bulb size in allium and leafy vegetables. - Fruits & Plantation Crops (Banana, Tea, Coffee):
Enhances vegetative growth and resistance to fungal diseases.
