Active STABILIZER™

An NBPT nitrogen-saving technology that maximizes return on investment by slowing down volatilization.

Active STABILIZER™ helps prevent nitrogen loss through ammonia volatilization ensuring applied fertilizer is not wasted. With it's low cost and unique variable application rate, farmers can treat as necessary to maximize their return on investment.

How it works

Active STABILIZER™ contains N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT), which inhibits the urease enzyme activity that produces ammonia gas. By stopping nearly 96% of the volatilization loss, plants have the opportunity to absorb and utilize the nitrogen necessary for photosynthesis and production of protein.

Active Ingredients

N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (NBPT) 12%

INACTIVE INGREDIENTS: (88%) [N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), propylene glycol, emulsifier, preservative, dye]

When to use

Whenever urea or UAN fertilizer is applied to soil*.

Application Rate

BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS: READ THE ENTIRE LABEL BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.

Blending into UREA-AMMONIUM NITRATE (UAN) SOLUTIONS: Use 1 – 2 L Active STABILIZER™/ 1000 kg UAN solution. Fill spray tank with half the desired amount of UAN, Measure the recommended quantity of Active STABILIZER™ and add to the tank. Mix well. Add other products at this stage, if needed. Add the second half of the UAN solution. Continue mixing until well blended. Keep agitator running while mixing.

Blending into UREA: Use 1.2 – 2.4 L Active STABILIZER™/1000 kg Urea. For uniform blending, use a blender with impregnation equipment. Weigh the urea and transfer to blender. Add the required amount of Active STABILIZER to the urea in the blender. Blend until the Active STABILIZER™ is uniformly mixed into the urea. Do not add any other fertilizer material until Active STABILIZER™ is thoroughly distributed. If mixture appears wet or sticky, a drying agent may be added at this time.

Benefits

TREATMENT PAYS FOR ITSELF:

The cost of applying Active STABILIZER™  is guaranteed to pay for itself in nitrogen savings alone, reducing the amount of urea fertilizer required. Less than a 1% yield advantage is all that is required with most applications before realizing a return on investment.

 

YIELD IS 100% PROFIT:

With 1.2 L/mt of urea, Active STABILIZER™  is able to produce an ROI >1% in Nitrogen savings alone. Everything after that is profit.

 

VARIABLE APPLICATION RATE:

The novel formulation provides a variable application rate allowing farmers to treat urea and urea-based nitrogen only as necessary while maximizing their return on investment.

 

SUPERIOR COMPOSITION:

Superior composition enhances coverage and spread-ability, penetration of active molecules, and handling qualities.
