UREA AN-32 PLANT FERTILIZER
UREA AMMONIUM NITRATE N (32%)
"Urea AN32" is a type of fertilizer that contains urea and ammonium nitrate in specific proportions. Here's what each component contributes:
1. Urea: Urea is a nitrogen-rich fertilizer with the chemical formula CO(NH2)2. It's a highly concentrated source of nitrogen, with a nitrogen content typically around 46%. Nitrogen is a vital nutrient for plant growth, playing a key role in chlorophyll formation, protein synthesis, and overall plant vigor.
2. Ammonium Nitrate (AN): Ammonium nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula NH4NO3. It contains both ammonium (NH4+) and nitrate (NO3-) ions, providing a source of both ammonium nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen. Nitrate nitrogen is readily available for plant uptake, while ammonium nitrogen is converted to nitrate by soil microorganisms over time, providing a sustained nitrogen supply to plants.
The "32" in "AN32" typically refers to the nitrogen content of the fertilizer, which is 32%. Therefore, Urea AN32 fertilizer contains a blend of urea and ammonium nitrate, with a total nitrogen content of 32%.
This fertilizer formulation provides a balanced supply of nitrogen to plants, combining the immediate availability of nitrate nitrogen from ammonium nitrate with the longer-lasting nitrogen release from urea. It's commonly used in agriculture to provide a quick boost of nitrogen to crops while also ensuring a sustained nutrient supply over time. As always, it's essential to apply fertilizers according to recommended rates and practices to maximize plant uptake and minimize environmental impact.
