Many tomato growers have experienced this common challenge: abundant flowering during the blooming stage, yet after a cold snap or strong wind, flowers drop heavily, resulting in poor fruit set. Even when fruits do set, misshapen or undersized fruits are frequent, significantly reducing yield and market quality. In fact, the flowering stage is the critical window that determines final tomato yield. During this period, plant demand for phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) rises sh

In agricultural production, phosphate fertilizers are essential to crop growth and development. What many may not realize is that the starting point of most common phosphate fertilizers is often a pale yellow, brittle crystal or powder — sulfur . With a global annual output of approximately 70 million tons , around 80% of sulfur supply comes as a byproduct of petroleum refining and natural gas processing , making it deeply intertwined with the global energy landscape. Sulfur

China’s Annual Contract Anchors Global Pricing While Supply–Demand Dynamics Shape the Market In November 2025, China finalized its 2026 annual potash import contract—an event that quickly became the central anchor for global potash pricing. The agreement not only halted the price slide in several emerging markets but also ignited China’s winter fertilizer stocking season. At the same time, rising sulfur and sulfuric acid prices pushed production costs sharply higher, placing

In modern precision viticulture, Monopotassium Phosphate (0-52-34) has evolved from a supplementary foliar fertilizer into a central “physiological regulator”  applied across the entire grape growth cycle. Its value extends far beyond supplying phosphorus and potassium. What truly elevates MKP is its unique scientific profile—high solubility, pure nutrient forms, and synergistic absorption—which allows it to precisely activate photosynthesis, stress resistance, and quality f

In the fourth quarter of 2025, the global fertilizer industry is marked by distinct trends of “strategic upgrading, rising demand, and active trade.” The United States has, for the first time, included phosphate rock and potash in its Critical Minerals List, underscoring the national-security importance of fertilizer resources. Nutrien, the world’s largest fertilizer producer, forecasts continued growth in global potash demand in 2026, prompting adjustments in industry planni
