Corteva N-Serve - Nitrogen Stabilizer
N-Serve nitrogen stabilizer is proven to protect producers’ largest input investment, ensuring nitrogen is available when and where corn and wheat need it most — in the root zone. When applied with anhydrous ammonia, N-Serve inhibits nitrification, which helps optimize yield and profit potential of corn and wheat.
N-Serve® nitrogen stabilizer delivers maximum profit by extending nitrogen availability during corn’s key growth stages. It works underground, where up to 70 percent of nitrogen loss can occur through leaching into the ground or denitrification into the atmosphere.
Any source of nitrogen is susceptible to loss through leaching or denitrification. N-Serve maximizes nitrogen when used with anhydrous ammonia.
Corn uses nitrogen in two forms: ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3-). But it prefers ammonium — because that form is more efficient for plants to use and less susceptible to loss.
But nitrate nitrogen can’t help corn if it’s beyond the reach of the plants’ roots during critical growth times. N-Serve acts to slow down the bacteria that converts ammonium to nitrate, keeping nitrogen in the ammonium form longer. That means it’s there when corn is ready for it — so the crop can reach its maximum yield potential.
- Active Ingredient : Nitrapyrin (Optinyte™ technology)
- Application Timing : Whether applying fertilizer in spring or fall, or in sidedress applications, N-Serve® nitrogen stabilizer can help get the most from producer investment by keeping nitrogen ready and accessible.
- Approved Use : Use to delay nitrification of ammoniacal and urea nitrogen fertilizer compositions in the soil by controlling the nitrification process.
