Urea 46% fertilizer

Urea 46 is a highly concentrated, fast-acting nitrogen fertilizer containing 46% nitrogen (N) — the highest nitrogen content available in solid form. It is widely used in agriculture to promote vigorous plant growth, improve leaf color, and boost crop yield. Urea can be applied directly to the soil or used as a component in blended fertilizers and foliar sprays.

 

 Composition

Chemical formula: CO(NH₂)₂

Nitrogen content: 46% (hence “Urea 46% N”)

Appearance: White crystalline or granular solid

Solubility: Highly soluble in water

 Uses

Fertilizer: Provides nitrogen for plant growth — promotes leafy, green growth.

Industrial applications: Used in resins, plastics, adhesives, and animal feed.

 Advantages

High nitrogen concentration (more N per unit weight).

Easy to handle, store, and apply.

Compatible with most other fertilizers.

 Application tips

Urea should be incorporated into the soil soon after application (to prevent nitrogen loss through volatilization as ammonia gas).

Avoid applying on hot or dry soil surfaces.

Can be applied as top dressing, basal fertilizer, or through irrigation (fertigation).
