Urea fertilizer is the most frequently used as the major and regular source of nitrogen in the most parts of the world. Its nitrogen is taken from the air present in atmosphere of earth (globe) and that is why it has natural tendency to be freed in the environment. Most part of the applied urea is lost through volatilization, leaching deep into the soil and so many other sources. As compared to the winter season or low temperature, losses of nitrogen are more during summer season and high temperature. Salt affected soils and sandy loam soils also cannot make proper use of nitrogen. Keeping these things in view, reduction in the losses of added nitrogen is a very important thing. In this video, we have explained more than 10 points which lead to minimize nitrogen losses which include split application, fertigation, use of sulphur coated or Neem coated formulations and many others. By following these instructions, we can save a large amount of urea. In this way, we can use urea fertilizers in most effective and efficient manner. I hope farmers will follow the instructions given in this video to enhance the benefits of urea fertilizer used in their fields. Efficient use of fertilizers is an important part of production technology of crops.
