Gypsum stands out as an exceptional source of calcium, offering numerous benefits to soil and plants alike. It effectively addresses common issues such as discolored patches on fruits, like blossom end rot found in tomato plants, peppers, melons, or squash. Additionally, it aids in mitigating problems such as dead buds and root tips, as well as premature shedding of blossoms or buds. This versatile dry amendment mineral serves as a crucial remedy for improving acid soils and treating aluminum toxicity, ensuring optimal growing conditions for a variety of crops.

Moreover, gypsum plays a pivotal role in enhancing soil structure, promoting better water infiltration, and preventing waterlogging. By breaking down high sodium levels, mitigating swelling clay issues, and managing excess water, gypsum facilitates improved drainage and aeration within the soil. As a result, it fosters an environment conducive to healthy root development and overall plant growth. Applying gypsum to soil facilitates the movement of water into the soil, thereby enhancing crop performance and resilience.

Furthermore, gypsum contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing runoff and erosion. Its ability to enhance soil structure and drainage minimizes the risk of water runoff carrying away valuable topsoil and nutrients. By promoting soil stability and reducing erosion, gypsum supports long-term agricultural productivity while minimizing environmental impact.
