Min. 85% 2.0 - 5.0 mm 

Bulk Density: 

Approx. 0.95 t/m 3 

Physiological Acidity: 

On account of its Sulphur content Ammonium sulphate nitrate has a relatively strong physiological 

acidity. The theoretical effect of 100 kg Ammonium sulphate nitrate on arable land is about - 89 kg 

Lime according to Sluijsmans’ formula. 

A 50 kg bag of Ammnonium sulphate nitrate contains 


7.0 kg Sulphur (S) 


Ammonium sulphate nitrate is particular suitable for: 

• basal supply of crops with nitrogen and sulphur 

• top dressings with nitrogen and sulphur 

• use on alkaline soils with a high pH levels 

• use at sulphur deficient locations 

• acid-loving crops 

Ammonium sulphate nitrate contains both the ammonium and nitrate forms of nitrogen, thus 

providing a rapid onset of action and sustained action of the nitrogen. The use of this fertiliser also 

ensures an optimum supply of sulphur. When Ammonium sulphate nitrate is used on soils with a 

tendency to soil acidification, the pH must be controlled and maintained by appropriate liming. 

Oilseeds 

Canola removes up to 7 times as much sulphur and twice as much nitrogen from the soil to produce 

one tonne of grain, compared with cereal crops. 

Ammonium sulphate nitrate contains sulphur in the form of sulphate, which is readily useable by 

plants, particularly those such as Canola. 

Sulphur should be applied either at sowing or at an early stage of growth with rates of Ammonium 

sulphate nitrate varying from 100-200 kg/ha. Good recovery from low sulphur levels has been 

achieved by top-dressing with rates of 50-150 kg/ha. 

Cereals 

Early Season: Ideal cool season nitrogen fertiliser, as Ammonium sulphate nitrate has 7% 

immediately available Nitrate-N for early season growth. 

The synergistic effect of mixed nitrogen nutrition (Nitrate-N plus Ammonium-N) has proven to 

increase early plant growth and tiller production in cereals compared to either from of nitrogen alone. 

At drilling and/or early tiller development apply 50-150 kg/ha of Ammonium sulphate nitrate 

(40-50 kg N/ha). 

Mid Season: Apply Ammonium sulphate nitrate to optimize milling quality through higher grain 

protein and improved dough development. Ammonium sulphate nitrate N:S ratio of 2:1 provides a 

good balance of nitrogen and sulphur. 

During stem elongation apply 50-150 kg/ha of Ammonium sulphate nitrate (40-50 kg N/ha). 

Pasture 

With Nitrate-N immediately available, pasture production is improved during the cooler autumn and 

spring periods. 

Ammonium sulphate nitrate is suited for pastures at drilling, also as a nitrogen/sulphur fertiliser for 

hay and silage. 

At drilling: Apply 50-100 kg/ha Ammonium sulphate nitrate (25-30 kg N/ha) . 

For spreading: Apply 50-150 kg/ha Ammonium sulphate nitrate (50-65 kg N/ha).

Keep in dry place and avoid exposure to moisture. To protect against high atmospheric humidity, it is 

advisable to cover ESTA Kieserite Fine with a plastic sheet. When stored in bulk, walls and floor 

should ideally be sealed with a bituminous coating. Wooden walls and roof trusses have proved to 

be particularly suitable. Metal surfaces should receive a corrosion resistant coating. 

A 25 kg bag of ESTA Kieserite Fine contains 




ESTA Kieserite Fine is particularly suitable for: 

• use in organic farming systems (BFA certified) 


• Improving magnesium and sulphur levels either applied as a straight product or as a blend 

ESTA Kieserite Fine contains magnesium and sulphur in water soluble sulphate forms, which are 

readily available to plants. It can be applied to all crops and soil types - regardless of pH value and is 

immediately available with long lasting effect. ESTA Kieserite Fine can be used as a straight product 

or in blends due to the excellent spreading characteristics. 

ESTA Kieserite Fine is approved by the Biological Farmers of Australia Co-op Ltd for use in organic 

farming systems as it is derived from naturally occurring salt deposits. 

Ideally application rates should be adjusted according to; 

• the requirements of the crops 

• the magnesium and sulphur availability determined by soil or leaf analyses 

• the anticipated losses due to leaching. 

Maintenance Applications 

When the soil magnesium status is satisfactory; 

• a maintenance application of 100-150 kg/ha of ESTA Kieserite Fine is appropriate for most 

crops under most growing conditions. 

However, in magnesium demanding crops such as sugarcane, banana, oil palm and pineapple then 

300-600 kg/ha of ESTA Kieserite Fine is recommended. 

Corrective Applications 

For correction of acute magnesium and sulphur deficiency; 

• an application of 200-300 kg/ha of ESTA Kieserite Fine as top dressing is a well accepted rate 

in a wide range of crops. 

For amelioration of soils with poor magnesium status an application of 300-500 kg/ha of ESTA 

Kieserite Fine is recommended after harvest or prior to sowing. 

Timings for Applications 

For annual crops ESTA Kieserite Fine is applied as a basal dressing in autumn or late winter. 

The best time of application for perennial crops is before the start of the main growth. 

On sandy soils and under high rainfall conditions application in early spring as basal or top dressing 

is recommended. 

Special Notes 

For corn underground fertilisation together with Nitrogenous and Phosphatic fertilisers has proved to 

be worthwhile. 

ESTA Kieserite Fine can be surface applied and does not require incorporation. This has particular 

implications for plantation crops where incorporation can influence root development.

A 25 kg bag of Korn-Kali Granular contains 




0.8 kg Sodium (Na) 


Korn-Kali Granular is particularly suitable for: 

• use on all chloride tolerant crops in all types of soils 

• base dressings and/ or top dressing 

Korn-Kali Granular is effective on all types of soils and for all crops that are not sensitive to chloride. 

It will complement Nitrogenous and Phosphatic based fertilising systems whether straight or in the 

form of bulk blends. Korn-Kali Granular provides nutrients that are water soluble and immediately 

available to the plant irrespective of soil pH. 

Annual applications of Korn-Kali Granular are recommended. 

However, if potash fertilisation is carried out only once within a cropping cycle (rotational fertilisation), 

Korn-Kali Granular is best applied prior to crops with high potassium requirements or crops with 

specific demand for one of the accompanying nutrients i.e magnesium and sodium. 

In loamy and clay soils Korn-Kali Granular is commonly applied after harvest in late summer/early 

autumn. By the subsequent tillage operations granules are well mixed into the topsoil ensuring even 

distribution and full availability of nutrients in the following cropping season. 

An early spring applied top dressing is recommended in light textured or organic soils to prevent 

losses by leaching during winter rains. 

Fertilisation with Korn-Kali Granular is particularly recommended if Nitrogenous fertilisation is based 

on amide-N or ammonium-N (i.e urea, ammonium-urea solution, ammonium sulphate, DAP, or semiliquid 

manure). Under such conditions Korn-Kali Granular secures the magnesium supply at all times. 

Application rates of Korn-Kali Granular depend on; 

• the specific potassium, magnesium and sulphur demand of the crop 

• the crop rotation 

• the content of plant available potassium and magnesium in the soil 

• the yield expectations 

• the use of organic fertilisers 

• climatic conditions 

For the most important crops the following rates give a general indication assuming an average 

content of potassium and magnesium in the soil.

and immediately available to the plants. Patent Kali Granular has a low salt index and is 

virtually chloride-free (max.3%). It is thus an ideal potassium, magnesium and sulphur source for 

chloride and salt-sensitive crops such as fruits, vegetables, grape-vines, hops, potatoes, sunflowers 

and forest trees. Patent Kali Granular is effective on all soil types, irrespective of pH. 

Patent Kali Granular is approved by the Biological Farmers of Australia Co-op Ltd for use in organic 

farming systems as it is derived from naturally occurring salt deposits. 

Application rates Patent Kali Granular depend on; 

• the specific potassium, magnesium and sulphur demand of the crop 

• the crop rotation 

• the content of plant available potassium and magnesium in the soil 

• the yield expectations 

• the use of organic fertilisers 

• climatic conditions 

For the most important crops the following rates give a general indication assuming an average 

content of potassium and magnesium in the soil.
