- NPK Blending: Ideal as the nitrogen component in high-grade controlled-release compound fertilizers
- Precision Agriculture: Suitable for fertigation and controlled nutrient programs
Application Guidelines
- Apply evenly to soil before seeding or early growth stages.
- Release rate depends on soil moisture and temperature—warmer and wetter conditions accelerate nutrient diffusion.
- Use soil testing and crop nutrient programs to determine application rates.
- Avoid mechanical damage to coating during transportation or blending.
Packaging & Storage
- Packaging Options: Available in 9.5 kg and 50 kg woven polypropylene bags with polyethylene liners, or in bulk jumbo bags (500 kg–1,000 kg).
- Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from moisture, acids, and strong oxidizers.
- Handling Tips: Keep bags off the ground on pallets, protect from rain, and avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity to prevent caking.
