ASN – The reliable original

Sulphur is an indispensable nutrient for all crops. In recent decades, it is contained in the atmosphere to a constantly declining extent as the result of modern environmental protection measures. Consequently, precipitation is increasingly low in sulphur. Due to this development, the targeted application of sulphur as a fertilizer is of fundamental importance in obtaining secure yields and in healthy plant growth.

Properties

ASN and ASN bor are the granulated mineral fertilizers for ensuring that all crops are securely supplied with nitrogen-sulphur. Nitrogen is present in the form of ammonium and nitrate. Sulphur is present as sulphate.
ASN bor additionally contains boron in a water-soluble form. Boron is thus available immediately. Over 80 years of product experience guarantee problem-free storage and very good spreading properties with working widths of over 40 m.

 

Effect

Similarly to CAN, ASN contains nitrate nitrogen that works quickly and slow-releases ammonium nitrogen. Sulphur is immediately available to the plant in the form of sulphate. To utilise nitrogen optimally, sulphur has to be present in sufficient quantities in every phase of growth. It is therefore ideal that ASN contains both nutrients in the correct ratio. The supply of the plants is guaranteed in all growing stages.

 

Application

ASN should be applied in the first, but at the latest in the second application of nitrogen fertilizer.
Thus, optimally adjusted quantities of sulphur are spread that, together with nitrogen, in one fell swoop supply the crop with sufficient sulphur until harvest time.

 

The Advantages at a Glance

  • Targeted supply of sulphur for optimal crop yields of high quality
  • Reduction in residual nitrogen volume after harvest
  • One N-dose provides sufficient sulphur until harvest time
  • Nitrogen is present in the tried-and-tested combination as nitrate and ammonium
  • Excellent storage and spreading properties
