Polysulphate Salt Index

11/23/2017

ICL/TAMI report, 5/2015

  • Salt Index is an important

characteristic of a fertilizer

  • Salt index is a measure of the

salt concentration that fertilizer induces in the soil solution

  • The higher the osmotic

potential of a solution - the more difficult it is for seeds or plants to extract soil water required for growth

Material and analysis Salt Index(*) KCl 116.2 KNO3 69.5 K2SO4 42.6 MgSO4 44 CaSO4 8.1 Polysulphate 12 Per equal weight of material

Conclusions

  • By providing 4 nutrients (3 secondary), a much better ‘Balanced

Fertilization’ is achieved

  • Polyhalite availability to plants is similar to equivalent other fertilizers,

but it provides extended availability for plant’s growth

  • Due to its unique solubility, leaching losses of K, Mg, S and Ca are

less and hence residual effect is achieved.

  • Polyhalite is suitable and safe for a wide range of crops

– Crops with high S requirements – With Cl sensitivity – For open field and green house – Affecting also produce quality
