Evaluation of urease and nitrification iInhibitors in Western Canada

Bremer, E., B. Ellert, B. Beres and Z. Wang. 2024.

Abstract

The recovery of fertilizer nitrogen by crops in the year of application is usually cited as being about 50%, despite considerable efforts to improve nitrogen efficiencies in agricultural systems. The use of fertilizer additives containing urease and/or nitrification inhibitors may improve fertilizer N efficiency. This was evaluated in four experiments conducted at multiple locations across the Canadian Prairies.
