A slow-release fertiliser, over a period of 12 months, with 90% Sulphur (S) and 10% Bentonite; with a typical application rate of 10 g/m2. Degradation and dissolution of the small sulphur granules will reduce soil pH making the surface less attractive to surface casting by earthworms as well as reducing the competitiveness of annual meadow grass. This is supplied by companies such as Advance Grass Solutions and Agrovista Amenity.

This is a liquid nitrogen fertiliser which is produced from the reaction processes of urea, formaldehyde and ammonia. It contains at least 25% to 28% N. It should not be applied with either ammonium-based nitrogen fertilisers as this may cause volatilization of the ammonia, or with fertilisers containing ferrous iron because of iron oxidation, making it unavailable to the plant. It is also referred to as Urea-Triazone (UT).

A soluble urea-based soluble granular fertiliser with 46% N, being a formulated combination of NBPT and DCD.

UMAXX can be used on its own as a urea-based fertiliser, or as a source of nitrogen in other blended fertilisers.
