Phokeng Gypsum, primarily composed of calcium sulphate, is mined and crushed to form a fine white powder. Phokeng Gypsum is a cost effective soil conditioner and very effective in correcting high soil sodium (Na) and is also used to raise the calcium content of soils without effecting the intrinsic pH balance. The gypsum is conveniently marketed in bulk and 50kg bags.
Why Use Phokeng Gypsum?- Loosen heavy, clay soils allowing air and water to penetrate
- Supplement calcium and sulphates in a form readily available to plants
- Improve the structure of alkaline soils by removing excess sodium
- Eliminate surface crusting
