MOP / Potassium Chloride 0-0-60
Potassium chloride (commonly referred to as Muriate of Potash or MOP) is the most common potassium source used in agriculture, accounting for about 98% of all potash fertilisers used worldwide.
MOP has a high nutrient concentration and is therefore relatively price competitive with other forms of potassium. The chloride content of MOP can also be beneficial where soil chloride is low. Recent resea
Product information:
Potassium chloride (KCl) (0-0-60) or Muriate of Potash (MOP): Most K deposits are found as KCl (sylvite) mixed with NaCl (halite) in the mineral sylvanite, often in ancient marine deposits buried deep beneath the Earth’s surface. In processing, the ore is crushed and the KCl and NaCl are separated.
Agricultural potassium chloride usually from sylvine, carnallite or in brine containing potassium chloride extraction,physiological acid fertilizer, soluble in water, fertilizer effect quickly, as a basic fertilizer, fertilizer is unfavorable forseed manure and at the base.
