Key Facts
-47% NO₃⁻ leaching
The use of inhibitors can reduce nitrate leaching by 47%.
-70% NH₃
Urease inhibitors reduce ammonia (NH₃) emissions by 70% as well as nitrous oxide (N₂O) by 23%.
-44% N₂O
Nitrification inhibitors (NI) reduce nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions by 44% on average.
Why use efficiency enhancers?
Nitrogen fertilisers are used to boost yields, but only about 50% of the applied nitrogen is taken up by the crop while the rest is released into the atmosphere, in deeper soil layer, ground water and/or fixed at soil particles. These losses pose a challenge for human health, climate and biodiversity. Efficiency enhancers (also called nitrogen stabilisers) such as urease and nitrification inhibitors offer a solution to address this challenge.
