Agricultural Uses

Kieserite is a greyish-white crystalline powder which contains about 16% magnesium and is used as a fertilizer. It is regarded as a concentrated form of epsom salt, having less water of crystallization. The monohydrate MgSO₄·H₂O(m onoclinic) occurs in nature as kieserite which contains 27% magnesium (as MgO) and 22% sulphur.
