Urea-

IFFCO's Urea is not merely a source of 46% of nutrient nitrogen for crops, but it is an integral part of millions of farmers in India.

A bag of IFFCO's urea is a constant source of confidence and is a trusted companion for Indian farmer.

Urea is the most important nitrogenous fertiliser in the country because of its high N content (46%N).

It has also numerous industrial uses notably for production of plastics.

Specification of urea as per Fertiliser Control Order

1. Moisture % by weight, maximum 1.0
2. Total N % by weight (on dry basis) minimum 46.0
3. Biuret % by weight, maximum 1.5
4. Particle size -
90% of the material shall pass through 2.8 mm IS sieve and not less than 80% by weight shall be retained on 1 mm IS sieve.

If urea is applied to bare soil surface significant quantities of ammonia may be lost by volatilisation because of its rapid hydrolysis to ammonium carbonate.

The hydrolysis of urea can be altered by the use of several compound called urease inhibitors.
