What Is Ammonium Sulfate?
Ammonium sulfate is a crystalline, water-soluble compound with the chemical formula (NH₄)₂SO₄. It contains approximately 21% nitrogen (N) and 24% sulfur (S), making it an ideal nutrient source for sulfur-deficient soils and nitrogen-hungry crops.
It appears as white or off-white granules or crystals and is known for its excellent storage stability and compatibility with other fertilizers.
