Storage of chemical fertilizers should be noted during the cold season

Some people think that the winter temperature is low, the fertilizer will not volatilize, will not explode and burn, and it is not much corrosive, but it is not.

Nitrogen fertilizers such as ammonium bicarbonate and ammonium sulfate are not non-volatile under low temperature conditions, but have a slower volatilization rate and less volatile content than the summer and autumn high temperature seasons; nitrogen fertilizers such as ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate and sodium nitrate are stored in the kitchen or heating stove. Beside, it is also prone to combustion explosion; the corrosion of superphosphate does not have much to do with the temperature. Bags, sacks, etc., if exposed to superphosphate, will be corroded, and the contents of the bag, such as seeds, salt, soda ash, etc. Will deteriorate. In addition, when the nitrogen fertilizer is volatilized, it will be converted into a highly corrosive ammonium hydroxide, which will cause the seed embryo to lose its sprouting power, deteriorate the grain and invalidate the pesticide.

In view of the above reasons, the storage of chemical fertilizers in the cold season also requires “five preventions”.

Anti-volatile Many nitrogen fertilizers, such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium nitrate, etc., are extremely unstable due to their nature, which are easily decomposed and volatilized during storage, reducing fertilizer efficiency. Therefore, such fertilizers should be stored in airtight plastic bags or other sealed and corrosion-resistant containers.

Waterproof and moisture-proof Nitrogen fertilizer is easy to agglomerate or lose water after being wetted by water. During storage and storage, care must be taken to keep the storage environment dry and prevent the bag from being broken.

Fireproof Ammonium nitrate is flammable and flammable. It is easily oxidized at high temperatures and burns or explodes. Therefore, be careful when storing, do not approach the stove, and do not store it with flammable materials. Fertilizers that can chemically react with each other are preferably stored separately.

Anti-pollution Ammonia fertilizer can not be placed in the bedroom or hall, so as to avoid the volatile ammonia gas irritating the eyes, nose and respiratory tract, which is harmful to health.

Anti-corrosion Carbon ammonia, calcium superphosphate, etc. cannot be stored in bags, sacks and paper bags, and should be stored in plastic bags or porcelain jars. All kinds of chemical fertilizers cannot be stored in a house with seeds, grain and oil, and agricultural tools.
