Fertilizers
Ammonium Nitrate
Universal highly concentrated nitrogen fertilizer containing ammoniac and nitrate forms of nitrogen in equal ratios.
Ammonium nitrate is a unique nitrogen fertilizer that is used for all kinds of soils and crops. It is most effective for fertilizing winter grain-crops in early spring and as the main fertilizer for spring grain-crops, corn, sunflower, etc. Application of ammonium nitrate in small doses reduces the losses of nitric nitrogen due to leaching.
Ammonium nitrate is a useful element for bulk blends.

Prilled Urea
Urea is the most concentrated nitrogen mineral fertilizer (contains 46% of N). It is a non-acid-forming fertilizer and can be used for all types of soil and for any crops as major fertilizer and in solution for additional foliar fertilization. Urea will be more effective then ammonium nitrate for irrigation and soil leaching. Besides, it is an essential nitrogen fertilizer by cultivation of rice and cucurbit crops.

CAN 27%
Non-acid forming nitrogen-calcium fertilizer containing zinc and copper, the elements that help plants assimilate nitrogen and magnesium from soil solution.
Calcuim-ammonium nitrate (CAN) contains ammonia and nitric nitrogen in equal ratios and is a universal highly effective mineral fertilizer.
Calcium is an important element of cell walls and a integral part of chromosomes’ structure. This secondary element helps to regulate plants’ enzyme activity which in its turn secures the uptake of other nutrious elements, particularly nitrogen. Calcium helps to strengthen grain-crops’ stems, increases the hull solidity and improves the color and the quality of tubers, roots and fruits and reduces the losses in storage of agricultural products.
Simultaneous application of nitrogen and calcium makes it possible to avoid liming and in this way reduces the number of runs of technical equipment across the field and cuts POL expenditures.
CAN can be used both as an independent fertilizer and for production of bulk blends.

Ammonium Sulphate is a concentrated nitrogen and sulphur fertilizer. Its granules have a gradient structure with a high concentration of ammonium sulphate on the surface and a high concentration of ammonium nitrate on the inside.
NPK 16:16:16 , NPK 8:24:24 is used as the main and presowing fertilizer for all kinds of soil and agricultural crops. The fertilizer contains higher concentration of potassium and is recommended for potassium demanding plants (beetroot, potato).
MAP
Universal highly-concentrated granular NP fertilizer. Such grades of N and P (12?52) make this fertilizer effective on phosphorus-deficient soils and as the key autumn fertilizer for winter grain crops. High phosphorus content improves the resistance of crops against unfavorable weather conditions (drought and frost), increases the resistance of plants against deceases, and facilitates the enrichment of plant’s roots with sugar.
This fertilizer can be applied on all soils and for all types of crops as major fertilizer for winter grain and root crops well as for additional nutrition in spring and in summer in order to accelerate the maturation of berries and fruits.
