The use of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate (MgSO4 7H2O )in agriculture

Fertilizer: In agriculture and horticulture, magnesium sulfate is used to improve magnesium-deficient soil. Magnesium is a basic element of chlorophyll molecule, and is commonly used in potted plants or crops containing magnesium, such as potatoes, roses, tomatoes, peppers and hemp. The advantage of using magnesium sulfate over other soil amendments such as dolomitic lime is its high solubility.

Feed: Feed grade magnesium sulfate is used as a magnesium supplement in feed processing. Magnesium is an indispensable factor in the process of bone formation and muscle contraction in livestock and poultry. It is an activator of various enzymes in livestock and poultry, and plays an important role in material metabolism and nerve function in livestock and poultry. If the body of livestock and poultry lacks magnesium, it will cause material metabolism and neurological disorders, supply imbalance, affect the growth and development of livestock and poultry, and even lead to death.
