In the last couple of years, we have experienced record-breaking Urea prices. The most expensive load of Urea we have sold before Fertiliser prices reduced to pre covid prices was $1600.00 per tonne. This, in comparison to the current $640.00 per tonne, makes you shudder at the thought. During this time of over-the-top Pricing, products like Green Urea were utilised to ensure Growers were getting some value for money.

So why upgrade to Green Urea now? Green Urea is used to keep nitrogen from disappearing. Green Urea has the same high analysis as Urea (46% nitrogen) and contains a urease inhibitor to protect against volatilisation losses, suitable where rainfall or irrigation is unlikely within a few days of application and can be blended with other fertilisers.

The main benefits of Green Urea are protection against nitrogen losses, retained nitrogen can then be used for additional pasture dry matter, allows greater flexibility of application timing and reduces nitrogen losses in unfavourable settings such as warm and windy conditions, on drying soils and on high pH soils.

The current price of Green Urea is $685.00 + GST per tonne. Check it out here.
