Diammonium Phosphate, DAP

DAP

 

 

Company's main activity is focused on production of nitrogen-phosphorus fertilizer Diammonium phosphate.

Nitrogen is an essential element required for plant development and growth, while phosphorus plays a crucial role in energy and nutrient metabolism, cell division and multiplication processes. Plants that are supplied with a sufficient amount of these elements are our main source of oxygen and food.

Balanced and chemically neutral Diammonium phosphate fertilizer containing no heavy metals and well soluble in water can be used to fertilize all types of soils, various outdoor crops, plants, and vegetable or flower gardens. Fertilizers may be used when digging or preparing the soil for sowing, during the sowing and planting process, and for additional fertilizing.

AB Lifosa is able to produce 936 thousand tonnes of Diammonium phoshate per year.
