What should be noted when applying diammonium phosphate? Please explain that the following three points should be noted when applying diammonium phosphate: 1. Diammonium phosphate must not be mixed with alkaline fertilizers, otherwise it will cause nitrogen volatilization and also reduce the fertilizer efficiency of phosphorus. 2. For crops that have already been applied with diammonium phosphate, during the middle and late stages of growth, generally only an appropriate amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be supplemented, and no additional phosphorus fertilizer is needed.

The following three points should be noted when applying diammonium phosphate:
1. Diammonium phosphate must not be mixed with alkaline fertilizers, otherwise it will cause nitrogen volatilization and also reduce the fertilizer efficiency of phosphorus.
2. For crops that have already been applied with diammonium phosphate, during the middle and late stages of growth, generally only an appropriate amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be supplemented, and no additional phosphorus fertilizer is needed.
3. Except for legume crops, most crops require combined application of nitrogen fertilizer when applied directly, to adjust the nitrogen-to-phosphorus ratio.
