Ammonium sulphate is indeed a valuable product on the fertilizer market.
It provides a concentrated source of nitrogen in the form of ammonium (NH₄⁺), and sulphur, both of which are essential nutrients for plant growth. It is particularly useful in soils that are deficient in sulphur or have high pH, as the sulphate form also helps to lower soil pH slightly. The nitrogen in ammonium sulphate is readily available for plant uptake, making it an efficient fertilizer, especially for crops like corn, wheat, and rice.
In the context of OG RENURE, which focuses on developing alternative fertilizers from processed manure that meet the same standards as synthetic fertilizers under EU regulations, ammonium sulphate can be considered a viable product. Recovered nitrogen products like ammonium sulphate can help reduce dependency on synthetic fertilizers, offering a circular approach to nutrient management in agriculture. However, its market value also depends on factors like local supply, demand, and the regulatory environment for fertilizers, particularly when derived from renewable sources such as manure.
