ammonium and pottasium

Global Ammonium and potassium Market
The Global Ammonium and Potassium Thiosulfate Market was worth USD xx billion in
2017 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of xx%, to reach USD xx billion by 2022.
Ammonium thiosulfate is a great source of nitrogen and sulfur. It contains 26% of sulfur
and 12% of nitrogen, both of which are major components of plant proteins. Potassium
Thiosulfate is an excellent source of potash and sulfur. It contains 17% sulfur and 25%
of potash. Potash is one of the most essential nutrients required by the plants.
Both ammonium and potassium thiosulfate are used as fertilizers in a variety of crops.
Moreover, both are compatible with each other when mixed in any ratio. They can be
applied as starter fertilizers for corn and other small seeded crops. They can be used on
crops, ornamental shrubs and golf courses through soil, foliar, fertigation applications.
Growing demand for water soluble macro nutrient fertilizers, compatibility of ammonium
and potassium thiosulfate fertilizers with many crop protection chemicals and the wide
range of applications of these products are driving the market growth. However,
availability of various alternatives to these fertilizers and growing trend of organic
agriculture are inhibiting the market growth.
The Ammonium and Potassium Thiosulfate market is segmented by type, method of
application and region. Based on the type, the market is segmented into Ammonium
Thiosulfate and Potassium Thiosulfate. Potassium thiosulfate holds the largest market
share by a small margin due to its application as a starter and pop-up fertilizer apart from
normal applications. By Application, the market is categorized into Soil Applied, Foliar
Application and Fertigation. Ammonium thiosulfate is widely applied using fertigation and
foliar methods as it is widely available as liquid fertilizer. Potassium thiosulfate is applied
using all three of the application methods and the method is chosen depending on the
type of crop it is used on.
On the basis of region, the global Ammonium and Potassium Thiosulfate market is
segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and
Africa. North America leads the ammonium and potassium thiosulfate market due to the
high market penetration and high usage rate on corn crops. Asia Pacific is the fastest
growing market due to the large demand for water soluble fertilizers in China and India.
Some of the major players in Ammonium and Potassium Thiosulfate market are
Tessenderlo Group, Koch Fertilizer, Agrium, Martin Midstream Partners, Rentech
Nitrogen, Poole Chem, Mears Fertilizer, Hydrite Chemical, Kugler, and R.W. Griffin.
