Two-disc fertiliser spreaders with mechanical drive nourishing winter crops.
Robert Mullen Ph.D.

From a crop nutritional standpoint, no. Mixing K with other fertilizer materials will not impact the benefit of K fertilization for a crop, as we do this all the time with dry fertilizer blends.

From a blending standpoint, there are certain compatibility issues to be aware of because mixing certain fertilizer products with K may impact fertilizer application and storage. For example, potassium chloride (MOP) and urea can be blended, but anything other than short-term storage of these two products together can result in caking due to the hygroscopicity (water sorbing) of the products.

Consult your local agronomist or fertilizer retailer to make sure products are compatible before finalizing your application plans.
