Magnesium Thiosulfate (MTS=™)

Magnesium Thiosulfate (MTS=™), or MgS2O3, is an important and versatile fertilizer used in agriculture as a source of magnesium and sulfur, both of which are essential nutrients for plant growth. MTS=™ helps to improve the efficiency of photosynthesis, leading to better growth and higher yield. It helps in the activation of many plant enzymes needed for growth processes and energy transfer. MTS=™ is essential for the formation of amino acids, proteins, and enzymes in plants. It also plays an important role in the synthesis of vitamins and is necessary to produce chlorophyll in a chloride- and nitrate-free form. MTS=™ improves crop resistance to stress, disease, and pests.

Improved Nutrient Uptake

Magnesium Thiosulfate (MTS=™) can improve the uptake of other essential nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, enhancing overall plant nutrition, cell structure and plant strength.

Correcting Deficiencies

MTS=™ can be used to correct magnesium and sulfur deficiencies in the soil, leading to healthier plants and better crop yields. MTS=™ can aid in protein and carbohydrate synthesis.

Soil Conditioning

MTS=™ helps in improving soil structure and reducing soil compaction, which facilitates better root growth and nutrient absorption.

Environmental Benefits

MTS=™ is less likely to cause nutrient runoff compared to some other fertilizers, making it an environmentally friendly option.

Prevent Foliage Burn

MTS=™ helps prevent foliage burn by supplying essential magnesium and sulfur, which improves plant health and supportsoverall plant growth, making foliage more resilient to adverse conditions.

Crop Uses

Tree nuts (pistachios, almonds, and walnuts)
Fruit crops (oranges, grapes, and strawberries)
Vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, and carrots)
Field crops (corn, soybeans, and wheat)

Application

MTS=™ can be applied as a foliar spray directly to the leaves for quick nutrient absorption, incorporation into the soil either as a pre-plant application or side-dressed during the growing season, or through irrigation and sprinkler systems where the fertilizer is dissolved in irrigation water and applied to crops. MTS=™ may also be blended with other fertilizers.
