Ferrous Sulphate

FeSO₄·7H₂O

Ferrous sulphate is the most direct answer to iron deficiency in alkaline soils — the yellowing between leaf veins that quietly caps yield. Its reducing power carries it well beyond the field: water treatment plants use it to remove hydrogen sulphide and control algae, while dyers, tanners and pigment makers rely on it as a mordant and precursor.
