46N Booster
Urea (46-0-0) is the most widely used nitrogen fertilizer worldwide, with the
highest nitrogen content, reaching 46% in amide form.
It is used to enhance the growth of all crops, as nitrogen is essential for protein formation, increasing photosynthesis and improving yield and quality of production.
The use of urea is versatile as it is suitable for use as basal or surface fertilisation, through spreading, hydrofertilisation and trans-water fertilisation. When applied to the soil, it is converted first to ammoniacal and then to nitrate nitrogen, providing both immediate and medium-term nutrition. However, to avoid losses through evaporation (ammonia), it is recommended to incorporate it into the soil or to apply it before rain or irrigation.
Features and benefits
Urea is recommended for a variety of crops, such as:
Cereals-Grain (wheat, barley, corn)
Industrial crops (cotton, sugar beet)
Fruit trees (olives, citrus trees, apple trees)
Vegetables (tomato, cucumber, potato, pepper)
Vineyards and other high-yielding crops.
High nitrogen concentration
It provides a large amount of nitrogen per unit of product, reducing production costs.
Flexibility
Ideal for various application methods (soil, trans-water nutrition, hydro-fertilization).
Slow release
It ensures prolonged nutrition, contributing to the stable growth of plants.
Adaptability
Compatible with all soil types and a wide range of crops.
Indicative dosage (per acre) and methods of application:
Cereals (wheat, barley)
20-40 kg/ha, with two applications: 15 kg of basic fertilizer and 15-20 kg of surface fertilizer before spraying.
Corn
30-40 kg/ha, in two doses: 10-15 kg at sowing and 10-15 kg in the growing phase.
Cotton
10-15 kg/ha, before flowering or with hydrofertilization in combination with irrigation.
Olives
1-2 kg/tree, in spring either superficially or by incorporation into the soil.
Tomato
2-3 kg/ha per application by hydrofertilisation, mainly during the period of foliar development and fruiting.
Potato
15-20 kg/hectare, in two doses: during planting and before tuber formation.
Vines
10-15 kg/hectare, in the spring before the start of vegetative growth.
