Abstract [eng] Monoammonium phosphate (MAP) – fully soluble in water, concentrated nitrogen-phosphorus fertilizers. Plants fertilized with these fertilizers easily absorb nutrients needed for growth and development of the plants. Next-gen, environmentally friendly, efficient and top-quality MAP fertilizers are used in agriculture for fertilizing various crops and soils. However, fertilizing becomes even more effective when complex fertilizers are used in combination with trace elements. This ensures the sustainable and stable growth of various food grains, oilseeds and legumes. Trace elements are necessary in agriculture in order to increase yields and improve the quality of agriculture production. Although these trace elements are needed in very small amounts, plants consume them for important functions [1-2]. During production, trace elements can be incorporated directly into monoammonium phosphate (MAP) or diammonium phosphate (DAP) fertilizers. This technology ensures a constant concentration of the desired trace element in each fertilizer granule and their uniform distribution in the soil [3]. In this experimental work, crystalline MAP was granulated by adding 0.495% zinc sulphate and using different amounts 2, 3, 4 and 5% of starch solution as binder. A laboratory drum granulator was used during process (Figure 1). [...].
