Diammonium Phosphate (DAP) is a water-soluble ammonium phosphate salt that serves as a high-performance fertilizer and nutrient source in agricultural and industrial applications. With its chemical composition of nitrogen and phosphorous, DAP is a key component in plant nutrition, offering a dual benefit by providing essential nutrients required for vigorous plant growth. Its high phosphorous content promotes strong root development, flowering, and seed formation, while the nitrogen component enhances healthy leaf and stem growth. DAP is widely utilized in agricultural practices for both direct application and as a base ingredient in various blended fertilizers. In addition to its agricultural uses, Diammonium Phosphate is commonly used as a fire retardant, yeast nutrient in winemaking and brewing, and as an important ingredient in the animal feed industry. Its versatility and efficacy make it an indispensable product across multiple industries, ensuring optimized performance and productivity.
