Ferrous sulfate monohydrate Usage
Feed Additives: As a highly effective iron supplement in animal husbandry, it is widely added to livestock, poultry, and aquatic feeds to prevent iron-deficiency anemia, improve disease resistance, and promote growth and coat color.
Agriculture and Fertilizers: In agriculture, it is used as an iron fertilizer to effectively prevent “yellow leaf disease” (iron deficiency) in fruit trees, vegetables, and other crops; it is also commonly used as a soil conditioner to adjust soil pH.
Industry and Water Treatment: Used in the manufacture of iron salts, pigments, and inks; in wastewater treatment, it is used as a flocculant with excellent decolorization and heavy metal removal capabilities.
