What is it?
Sulfate of Potash (SOP) fertilizer is made up of two primary components: potassium (K) and sulfur (S). Potassium is an essential macronutrient for plants, while sulfur plays a vital role in various plant functions. Together, they form the compound known as potassium sulfate.
How to use?
Alfalfa: Apply up to 125-575 lbs Sulfate of Potash/acre according to stand age, yield potential and soil test. Apply in split applications early in spring and between cuttings. Utilizing Sulfate of Potash for part or all of your potassium needs provides your crop with water soluble potassium along with sulfate sulfur. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.
Almond: Apply 160 lbs/Acre for each 1,000 lbs of nut yield goal to replenish K removed by the nut crop. Fall application should provide the bulk of the K needed, with additional application through fertigation in spring time. SOP is low in chloride and ideal for regions where chloride injury to roots or salt accumulation in the soil are concerns.
Apple: For established orchards apply up to 175-575 lbs Sulfate of Potash/acre in split applications.
