Your Path to a Sustainable Future
Black Urea® is assisting Farmers globally to improve their nitrogen use efficiency while enhancing their economic and environmental sustainability.
The pressure on farmers to reduce environmental impact from fertiliser, cut Green House Gas (GHG) Emissions & meet Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) regulations, is significant & growing.
The Black Fertiliserâ„¢ granules and liquids give farmers immediate reductions, as their ability to be applied at 25% - 30% less than ordinary fertilisers reduces the CO2e also by 25% - 30%.
Minimise Your Inputs
Input costs are always challenges for farmers, with Black Urea's Nitrogen Use Efficiency innovation, Advanced Nutrients® is paving the way to reduce input costs.
​
Saving farms thousands on their next nitrogen purchase while enhancing agriculture environmental standards with Black Urea®!
Maximise Your Profits
Black Urea® allows farmers to reduce fertiliser rates without compromising yield, whilst increasing profits. With such increased nitrogen use efficiency, you can now buy less fertiliser volume to gain the same results.
​
This is the improved profits and environmental tool that you and agriculture have been searching for!
No Loss of Crop Production
Farmers applications are typically well proven in economic and environmental benefit, of reducing Black Fertilisersâ„¢, granule or liquid, by 25%-30% over their normal fertiliser application rates to achieve the same yield and quality results.
​
The reduction in application does not affect plant production as the plant still receives the same amount of Nitrogen, the saving is in reducing the losses to the environment that the plant was not accessing anyway (volatilisation, leaching, denitrification).
Not Mining Soil Nitrogen
With the unique ability of Black Fertilisersâ„¢ to be applied at reduced rates to ordinary nitrogen and phosphorus fertilisers, while still maintaining yields & quality, the question is often asked, 'are we mining the soil'?
The answer is NO, the reduced rates are possible as Black Fertilisersâ„¢ are reducing the losses to the environment (volatilisation, leaching, denitrification), that the plant was not accessing anyway, so the nutrients are coming from the stability of the fertiliser and not mining soils .
How Do Black Fertilisersâ„¢ Work?
By promoting the pathway of nitrogen which is most efficient to the plant...
The Coating
The patented coating contains carbon organic catalyst (humic, fulvic, biostimulants, surfactants and other proprietary ingredients) that provide a very high nutrient exchange capacity around the fertiliser granule and serve soil microorganisms an extremely high energy packet.
-
Nitrogen is stabilised in the soil primarily as ammonium and protein (in microbes) with a sustained release to nitrate controlled by the plant-soil interaction (rhizosphere).
-
Phosphorus is stabilised with carbohydrate to avoid reactions with multivalent cations (tie -up).
-
A unique stabilising innovation that can be used with Urea, Liquid Urea, UAN, GAS, DAP & RPR.
​
Do They Work Everywhere?
Yes, wherever high nitrogen losses occur. By working on a physical and biological level, where these processes are limiting, an economically favorable result is typical. Soils with <2.5% soil organic matter (SOM), and/or a low cation exchange capacity (CEC), will perform to expectations.
Why Not Just Use Humic Acid?
We do include a small amount of technical humic acid to provide exchange capacity and to bind the active ingredients to the granule. Humic compounds with a specific ratio of functional groups and with a very high surface area are effective at these small amounts, though are incapable of increasing the metabolic necessity of target soil microbes by themselves.
