1. Appearance: White crystal powder


2. Production technique: Phosphoric acid by wet process, and then reacted with liquid
ammonia.
3. Packing: In PP woven bag with PE inner bag, 25 kg or 1000 kg.
4. Advantages:
a. MAP is crystalline powder, free flowing and dissolves quickly in water.
b. Excellent starter fertilizer. Contain highly efficient source of phosphorus and ammonium
nitrogen for plants. MAP improves crop establishment and root development, thus ensuring
optimum phosphorus levels in soil at planting and transplanting.
c. Provide P during the flowering initiation stage when P requirement is high, especially during
the cell division phase.
d. Increase availability of phosphorus naturally available in the soil due to an increased pH in
the root zone by the ammonium-ion (NH4+).
e. Can be tank-mixed with other fertilizers (expect calcium or magnesium fertilizers) or
pesticides to meet crop nutritional needs throughout the growth cycle.
f. No crystallization and no salt deposits in drippers and irrigation systems.
5. Applications
All crops for soil and soilless culture crops in agriculture and horticulture.

6. Usages:
a. Used for foliar feeding, fertigation (through drip irrigation, pivot irrigation or flood
irrigation) and as an ingredient for N, P and K compound fertilizer.
Foliar application: Dilute 400-500 times at every stage of the whole season;
Fertigation: Dilute 1000-2000 times. Applied for every 10-15 days, for 3-5 times.
b. As a fire-prevention agent for fabric, timber and paper, as well as a fire-prevention coating,
and dry powder for fire extinguisher.
7. Warnings and precautions for use:

a. This product is safety while mixed and applied with neutral & acidic chemicals or other
fertilizers.
b. Avoid application while rainy or in blazing sunshine; store in dry places; keep out of reach
of children.
c. Should not be mixed with calcium or magnesium fertilizers. In this case, two tanks are
required or fertilizers should be applied separately.
d. Test for possible side-effects or phytotoxicity by a small trial, spraying a week prior to the
intended commercial treatments.
e. After spraying rinse the sprayer and all its parts thoroughly with fresh water.
