The advantages of using pelletelized gypsum compared to powdered gypsum

Abstract

Powdered gypsum products were the standard for agricultural gypsum for many years, but as growers look to maximize their return on investment, they are increasingly turning toward pelletized gypsum – a premium alternative. Pelletized gypsum offers several significant advantages over other forms of gypsum such as powdered or ultra-fine gypsum, these advantages will be discussed in the paper. This has led to increased grower adoption and a greater demand for fertilizer and soil amendment producers to offer gypsum in a pelletized form. Producers are also finding that they stand to gain a few benefits from offering a pelletized product as well.
