CONT

Ammonium nitrate (AN) and urea are used as feedstocks in the production of urea-ammonium nitrate (UAN) liquid fertilizers. Most UAN solutions typically contain 28, 30 or 32% N but other customised concentrations (including additional nutrients) are produced.

CONT

Urea and urea ammonium nitrate are commonly used fertilizers on the Canadian prairies. Both fertilizers are subject to volatile losses of ammonia when applied to the soil surface.

CONT

Power Organics Fish Fertilizer. This new fertilizer may be the world’s most ideal plant food - an excellent combination of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in convenient form.

This is far better than ammonium-urea or manure fertilizers that evaporate or wash away from the root zone.

OBS

A fertilizer carried in tanks in solution with water which has no synergistic effect on people when mixed with toluene.
