Phosphorus plus sulphur and calcium in one granule.
N 0%P₂O₅ 16%K₂O 0%
What it is
SSP contains 16% phosphate (P₂O₅) along with sulphur (~11%) and calcium (~19%). It suits oilseeds, pulses and crops on sulphur-deficient soils, where the secondary nutrients add real value beyond phosphorus.
Benefits
- Supplies sulphur — valuable for oilseeds and pulses
- Adds calcium, improving soil structure over time
- Lower cost per bag than DAP (more bulk needed)
Precautions
- Bulky: ~2.9× the quantity of DAP is needed for the same phosphorus
- Apply at sowing like other phosphorus sources
Application guidance
Broadcast and incorporate at sowing. To replace DAP's phosphorus, multiply the DAP quantity by 46/16 ≈ 2.875.
