Mono-Ammonium Phosphate

MAP 11-54

A highly soluble and concentrated phosphate fertilizer, ideal for soil fertilization or fertilizer mixtures.

Mono-Ammonium Phosphate, commonly called MAP.Contains both nitrogen and phosphorus, which are essential macronutrients.

 

It’s very high phosphorus content ranks it as one of the richest phosphate fertilizer in phosphorus. With 11% nitrogen and 54% phosphorus according to the qualities produced by OCP, it can be used directly in application as a source of starter nitrogen and phosphorus as it can be used in tailored dry mixtures.
