Application
- Fertigation systems — drip-irrigated horticulture, greenhouse, flower farms
- Foliar application at controlled dilution
- High-value crop programmes — premium tomato, capsicum, cucumber, strawberry
- Hydroponic systems
- Water-soluble blend formulation
The water-soluble crystalline form dissolves rapidly in irrigation water and is a premium-priced specialty fertilizer (significantly above standard granular DAP and NPK). Specified where agronomic value justifies the premium — typically 5–15× the per-MT cost of granular DAP.
For Naivasha rose farms, Mt Kenya horticulture-export operations, Thika-area greenhouse operations, and Murang'a high-value vegetable farms, MPK and MAP 12:61 are the standard P-K and N-P inputs.
