What should be noted when applying ammonium bicarbonate for agricultural use? Please give an introductionThe following points should be noted when applying ammonium bicarbonate for agricultural use:
1. Ammonium bicarbonate must not be mixed with alkaline fertilizers, to prevent nitrogen volatilization and loss of nitrogen.
2. Foliar spraying is taboo. Ammonium bicarbonate is highly corrosive to crop leaves and easily burns them, affecting photosynthesis, so it must not be used for foliar spraying.
3. Whether used as a base fertilizer or a top dressing, ammonium bicarbonate must not be spread on the soil surface, to prevent nitrogen volatilization, loss of nitrogen, or burning of crops.
4. When the soil is dry or soil moisture is insufficient, ammonium bicarbonate should not be applied, to prevent volatilization under high temperatures and to avoid affecting fertilizer efficiency.
5. When applying ammonium bicarbonate, it must not come into contact with crop seeds, roots, stems or leaves, to prevent burning.
6. Ammonium bicarbonate is not suitable as a seed fertilizer, to avoid burning the seed embryo and affecting germination and emergence.
7. Mixing with bacterial fertilizers and urea is taboo. After application, ammonium bicarbonate releases ammonia gas at a certain concentration; if it comes into contact with bacterial fertilizer, it will kill the live bacteria in the bacterial fertilizer and destroy its yield-increasing effect; ammonium bicarbonate also must not be mixed with urea, because urea cannot be absorbed directly by crop roots and can only be absorbed and utilized by crops after being converted into ammonium nitrogen under the action of urease in the soil; after ammonium bicarbonate is applied to the soil, it causes the soil solution to become acidic in the short term, which accelerates the volatilization loss of nitrogen in urea.
