Why It Matters
Fertilizer blenders and enhanced-efficiency-fertilizer producers buy NBPT and DCD/DMPP by the tote to cut urea ammonia volatilization and nitrate leaching. Urease inhibitors slow the enzyme that converts urea to ammonia, while nitrification inhibitors suppress the soil bacteria that oxidize ammonium to leachable nitrate
Solution Approach
Fertilizer blenders and enhanced-efficiency-fertilizer producers buy NBPT and DCD/DMPP by the tote to cut urea ammonia volatilization and nitrate leaching. Urease inhibitors slow the enzyme that converts urea to ammonia, while nitrification inhibitors suppress the soil bacteria that oxidize ammonium to leachable nitrate RawSource supplies the base chemicals that go into these programs. We can help with product selection, grade matching, and sourcing from multiple origins for supply security.
Typical Application Workflow
1
Application & Agronomic Review
Define the use (crop input, adjuvant, soil amendment, post-harvest) and the agronomic, regulatory, and tank-mix requirements.
2
Input & Grade Selection
Match the surfactant or adjuvant, nutrient source, chelate, or formulation aid to the active, water quality, and label.
3
Compatibility & Rate Trial
Confirm tank-mix compatibility, dose, and stability, and size packaging (jugs, drums, totes, bulk) to the season and logistics.
4
Field Validation
Validate efficacy and crop safety in field trials, and lock the spec and supply plan for the season.
Recommended Chemistries (3)
NBPT (N-(n-butyl)thiophosphoric triamide)
CAS 94317-64-3
Urease inhibitor that blocks the urease enzyme, delaying urea hydrolysis and sharply reducing ammonia volatilization losses
Full Details
DCD (dicyandiamide)
CAS 461-58-5
Nitrification inhibitor that suppresses Nitrosomonas bacteria, holding nitrogen as ammonium and cutting nitrate leaching
Full Details
DMPP (3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate)
CAS 202842-98-6
Potent low-dose nitrification inhibitor that delays ammonium oxidation, extending nitrogen availability with less additive
