calciumsuperfosfaat

Calcium superfosfaat is a phosphorus fertilizer produced by treating phosphate rock with sulfuric acid. It is a widely used source of phosphorus for agricultural crops, which is an essential nutrient for plant growth. The process converts insoluble phosphate minerals in the rock into more soluble forms that plants can absorb. Calcium superfosfaat typically contains around 16-20% phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5). It is considered a relatively slow-release phosphorus fertilizer, meaning the phosphorus becomes available to plants over an extended period. This can be beneficial in reducing phosphorus losses from the soil. It also provides calcium, another essential plant nutrient, although in smaller amounts compared to its phosphorus content. The application of calcium superfosfaat helps improve root development, flowering, and fruiting in plants. It is available in both single and triple superphosphate forms, with triple superphosphate containing a higher concentration of phosphorus.
