Enhancing Crop Growth Using Magnesium Sulfate and Zeolite-A Characterization Study Via SEM-EDS and FTIR

The synergistic application of magnesium sulfate and zeolite offers a promising approach to enhancing nutrient availability and improving soil fertility for better crop productivity. This study investigates the morphological, elemental, and functional group interactions of magnesium sulfate-zeolite combinations using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The combined application aims to provide controlled nutrient release, improve water retention, and enhance overall plant health. Results reveal that the composite structure provides better magnesium retention and delivery efficiency, suggesting strong potential in sustainable agriculture.
