Overview of Indorama NPK 20-10-5 + 15S Fertilizer

1. Composition:
   • Nitrogen (N): 20%
   • Phosphorus (P2O5): 10%
   • Potassium (K2O): 5%
   • Sulfur (S): 15%
   • Form: Typically available in granular form, which is easy to handle and apply.
2. Benefits:
   • Balanced Nutrition: Provides a balanced supply of macronutrients (N, P, K) essential for plant growth and development.
   • Improved Yield and Quality: Enhances crop yields and improves the quality of the produce.
   • Sulfur Addition: The inclusion of sulfur helps in protein synthesis, enzyme function, and overall plant health.
   • Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of crops, including cereals, vegetables, fruits, and cash crops.
3. Application Methods:
   • Broadcasting: Spreading the fertilizer uniformly across the field, either manually or using a spreader. Ideal for cereals and broad-acre crops.
   • Banding: Applying the fertilizer in bands along the rows or around individual plants. Effective for row crops and vegetables.
   • Side-Dressing: Applying the fertilizer alongside growing plants. Useful for crops like maize and tomatoes.
   • Incorporation: Mixing the fertilizer into the soil during planting or tillage to enhance nutrient availability.
4. Usage Recommendations:
   • Timing: Apply at the beginning of the growing season and during key growth stages to ensure continuous nutrient supply.
   • Rate of Application: Follow specific guidelines based on crop type, soil fertility, and local agricultural recommendations. Avoid over-application to prevent nutrient imbalances and environmental issues.
   • Watering: Ensure adequate soil moisture before and after application to improve nutrient uptake and reduce losses.
5. Storage and Handling:
   • Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight to prevent caking and degradation.
   • Handling Precautions: Use gloves and protective gear when handling the fertilizer to avoid skin and eye irritation. Follow safety guidelines for transport and storage.

Crop-Specific Recommendations:

1. Cereals (e.g., Maize, Rice, Wheat):
   • Apply at planting and as a top-dress during critical growth stages.
   • Ensure uniform distribution for even crop growth and development.
2. Vegetables (e.g., Tomatoes, Peppers, Leafy Greens):
   • Use banding or side-dressing methods to provide nutrients close to the root zone.
   • Monitor plants for nutrient deficiencies and adjust application rates accordingly.
3. Fruits (e.g., Citrus, Mango, Banana):
   • Apply the fertilizer around the drip line of the trees to ensure effective nutrient uptake.
   • Combine with other fertilizers as needed to provide a balanced nutrient supply.

Environmental Considerations:

• Sustainable Practices: Incorporate organic matter and other sustainable farming practices to enhance soil health and fertility.
• Minimizing Nutrient Loss: Use appropriate application methods and timing to reduce nutrient runoff and leaching.
