A technical agronomist says the wet spring is a good reminder that farmers using surfaced applied nitrogen should also be using an inhibitor.
Matt Fryer with Koch Agronomic Services tells Brownfield…
“Especially nitrogen that has any form of urea nitrogen in it.” He says, “Volatilization loss is a huge risk. We can lose up to 40 to 50% and so stabilizing for surface supplied nitrogen is vital.”
He says high loss conditions are most prevalent in wet soils.
