The urea in PIAGRAN^®46 is quickly available for plant nutrition. Urea hydrolysis, the conversion of the urea nitrogen into ammonium nitrogen, begins immediately after fertilisation. At a soil temperature of 20 °C that occurs within 24 hours and the process only takes around four days even at 2 °C. The supply of nitrogen is thus quickly guaranteed. The further conversion of the ammonium form to nitrate, the so-called nitrification, also occurs within a short time period. One week at 20 °C and around six weeks at 5 °C are sufficient for this. As the plants can already take up the ammonium nitrogen in line with requirements, the risk of nitrogen losses from the mobile nitrate form is reduced considerably in comparison to fertilisers containing nitrate. PIAGRAN^®46 guarantees an adequate and balanced supply of nitrogen to the plants at all times and enables an economical and environmentally friendly application while observing good professional practice.
