Summary
The interaction between phosphorus and nitrogen refers to the mutual influence between phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) in plant absorption and utilization.
The synergistic effect between phosphorus (P) and magnesium (Mg) is critical for optimizing crop nutrition. Magnesium sulfate fertilizers (e.g., MgSO₄·7H₂O and MgSO₄·H₂O) significantly improve phosphorus solubility in soil by regulating pH levels and promoting root absorption.

Mechanism: In alkaline soils (pH >7.5), phosphorus tends to form insoluble calcium phosphate compounds. Magnesium ions (Mg²⁺) compete with calcium, reducing phosphate fixation and increasing available phosphorus by up to 22% (FAO 2023 data).
Global Trend: With Morocco and China dominating 68% of global phosphorus exports (World Bank 2024), downstream fertilizer producers increasingly adopt magnesium oxide (MgO) and boron-magnesium fertilizers to offset high P fertilizer costs.
Product Link: Our Water-Soluble Magnesium Sulfate ensures rapid phosphorus activation, ideal for drip irrigation systems in India and Brazil where soil phosphorus deficiency affects 40% of farmland.
