Urea

Urea is a nitrogen-based fertilizer with an NPK (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium). Its chemical composition is similar to the organic form of urea, offering several advantages for large-scale agricultural use. While urea naturally occurs in humans and animals, the synthetic variant is produced using anhydrous ammonia.

Urea ranks as one of the most widely used and cost-effective chemical fertilizers globally, primarily supplying nitrogen.

This fertilizer is neutral (neither acidic nor alkaline), highly soluble in water, and relatively non-toxic, making it a preferred source of nitrogen in chemical fertilizers. Additionally, urea serves as a critical raw material in the chemical industry.

In the soil, urea undergoes hydrolysis, transforming into ammonia and carbon dioxide. Its high solubility makes it suitable for both soil fertilization and foliar spray applications. Notably, 46% of urea's composition is nitrogen.
