I use it to make compost from sawdust of wood chips.
Stabilized Iron + Ammonium Nitrate are better if you can get them
We are actually using this to oxidize wood for our house not as a fertilizer, but it was exactly what we wanted for the lowest price we could find and came on time!!
Definitely full of iron and sulfur -we could smell it while mixing soil, proof that it was good product. Easy to use and handle, great stuff!
