Urease and Nitrification Inhibitors are efficiency enhancers contributing to reducing nitrogen losses from fertilisers.

Efficiency Enhancers are a key element of agronomic sustainability: they enable an improved efficiency of nitrogen containing organic and mineral fertilisers by ensuring better climate protection and increasing yield potential.

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.
