Chemical fertilizer storage must know "six defenses"

In the busy farming season, farmer friends like to prepare fertilizers in advance, and they can use them directly when they are topdressing. After topdressing, some farmers will have some surplus fertilizer. In both cases, farmers will store them. Then, what should farmers pay attention to when storing these fertilizers?

One anti-volatilization, we all know that ammonia, ammonium bicarbonate is very volatile, so be sealed when stored. Nitrogen fertilizers and superphosphate are also prohibited from being mixed with alkaline substances such as lime and grass ash to prevent chemical reactions, causing nitrogenous chemical fertilizers to evaporate and reduce the fertilizer efficiency of phosphate fertilizers.

Second, prevent moisture, ammonium nitrate, lime nitrogen and calcium superphosphate are easy to agglomerate after absorbing moisture, affecting the application effect. After ammonium bicarbonate absorbs moisture, the nitrogen is volatile, and it must be tightly sealed to avoid contact with air. Therefore, these fertilizers should be stored in a dry, cool place.

Three anti-corrosion, calcium superphosphate corrosive, should prevent contact with the skin, metal utensils; ammonia on the copper, iron, a strong corrosive, should be stored in ceramic, plastic, wooden containers. In addition, chemical fertilizers should not be piled up with seeds, and do not use chemical fertilizers in bags to avoid affecting seed germination.

Fourth, high temperature, nitrogen fertilizer by the sun, nitrogen will accelerate the loss of volatilization; ammonium nitrate will break down in high temperatures, which will cause fertilizer failure.

5. Fire prevention: Ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, etc. are flammable and cannot be stored together with flammable materials such as kerosene, gasoline, straw, sawdust, etc. to avoid fire.

Six anti-explosion, ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, etc. are liable to explode. If mixed with copper, iron and other metal powders, it will cause an explosion accident if it is rubbed and hit. Therefore, after the hardening of these fertilizers, do not use metal objects and smash them with heavy objects.
