Calcium ammonium nitrate, often abbreviated CAN, is a fertilizer which is a blend (mixture) of about 20%-30% CaCO3 and 70%-80% Ammonium nitrate. It is used as a general plant fertilizer. It is an example for nitrogenous fertilizer. Calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) contains 27 % N and 20 % of ground limestone.
Suggested Usage:
CAN is preferred for use on acid soils, as it acidifies soil less than many common nitrogen fertilizers. It is also used in place of ammonium nitrate where ammonium nitrate is banned.
