Product Information

Mode of Action

Soil Conversion: Upon application to the soil, urea converts into ammonium carbonate through the action of the naturally occurring enzyme urease. This is then rapidly converted into ammonium and nitrate forms, which are readily absorbed by plant roots.

Physiological Role: Nitrogen is the essential building block for chlorophyll synthesis (responsible for green color), protein formation, and overall vigorous vegetative growth and development.

Key Benefits
  • Highest nitrogen concentration (46%) among solid fertilizers.
  • Quick-acting source for immediate plant nitrogen requirements.
  • Promotes rapid and vigorous vegetative growth.
  • Enhances leaf development and imparts a healthy dark green color.
  • Highly cost-effective nitrogen source per unit of nutrient.
  • Versatile and suitable for various application methods (broadcasting, placement, etc.).

General Dosage Recommendations

*Note: Specific dosage data was not provided in the input. The table below contains general recommendations for Urea. Actual dosage depends heavily on crop type, soil test results, and local agronomic practices.

Application Timing Crop Types General Dosage (kg/acre)
Basal + Top Dressing splits Cereals (Rice, Wheat, Maize) 50 – 100 kg (total per season)
Split Applications Sugarcane, Cotton 100 – 150 kg (total per season)
Split Applications Vegetables & Fruits As per specific crop requirement and growth stage.

Directions for Use

1. Split Application (Crucial)
To maximize Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) and reduce losses (leaching/volatilization), urea should rarely be applied all at once. Apply in split doses during critical vegetative growth stages (e.g., tillering, panicle initiation in rice).
2. Incorporation is Key
To prevent nitrogen loss through ammonia volatilization, especially on alkaline soils or under hot conditions, incorporate urea into the soil immediately after application, followed by irrigation or rainfall.
3. Application Methods
Suitable for broadcasting, side-dressing, and placement. Ensure uniform distribution to avoid localized over-fertilization which can damage plants.

Safety & Storage

Storage: Urea is highly hygroscopic (absorbs moisture quickly from the air). Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place in tightly sealed original bags. Do not stack too high to prevent caking.

Safety: Generally safe to handle, but prolonged skin contact should be avoided. Wear gloves during manual application. Keep out of reach of children and livestock.
