PROPERTIES
FLOWTECHX N-21, is a fertilizer which decreases nitrogen loss and provides to use more productive of applied nitrogen. Nitrification inhibitors in its conent delay the conversion of ammonium to nitrate and lowering nitrate leaching and prevents nitrogen loss.
Usage of nitrification inhibitors inside FLOWTECHX N-21 reduce nitrate leaching by keeping the applied nitrogen in ammonium form, which can be hold by soil with cation exchange capacity.
Dicyandiaminde (DCD) is a well-known nitrification inhibitor used in FLOWTECHX N-21 that studied in a wide range of crops. The DCD inhibits nitrosomonas bacteria and stopping the oxidation of NH4+ to NO2-. As a result slowly released nitrate from ammonium can be taken by plant without leaching and unwanted nitrogen loss prevented.
