Compatible with urea, urea ammonium nitrate and other urea based fertilizers.
BENEFITS
Nitrogen is essential for plant life and growth and is therefore a component of many fertilizers. However, up to 50% of the nitrogen applied as soil fertilizer is unavailable to plants because it is quickly converted to ammonia gas and released into the atmosphere. ARM U™ inhibits this enzymatic process, allowing nitrogen to be absorbed through the plant roots. Unlike other NBPT formulations, ARM U™ is patented and an improved formulation that contains polymers (spreader molecules) that increase NBPT’s binding rates to urease enzyme leading to improved NBPT activity. This increased activity enables a lower active ingredient and a lower use rate. In addition, ARM U™ is formulated to have a high buffering capacity to keep the solution pH below 7 and to protect and fully utilize the nitrogen present in the NBPT molecule.

HOW IT WORKS
ARM U contains N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), which inhibits the urease enzyme activity that produces ammonia gas. By stopping nearly 96% of the volatilization loss, plants have the opportunity to absorb and utilize the nitrogen necessary for photosynthesis and production of protein.
