Urea fertilizer is a highly concentrated source of nitrogen, containing about 46% nitrogen by weight, making it the most common nitrogen-release fertilizer globally. It is used to promote vigorous green, leafy growth, but must be applied correctly to prevent damage to plants. After application, urea is converted into ammonium, which plants can absorb, and can be applied in solid, liquid, or coated forms for slow release.
Benefits:

Important consideration:
-Avoid over-application as it can cause scotching.
-Incorporate/cover in soil to minimize loss.
