Potassium sulfate(Cat No.:M144238), is a chemical compound consisting of potassium ions (K+) and sulfate ions (SO4^2-). It appears as a white crystalline powder and is a widely used fertilizer in agriculture. It provides essential potassium and sulfur nutrients to plants, promoting growth, crop yield, and overall health. Potassium sulfate is favored for crops that are sensitive to chloride ions, as it does not contain chloride, making it suitable for chloride-sensitive plants like tobacco and certain fruits. Its versatility in improving soil fertility and plant nutrition contributes to its significance in modern agriculture practices.
