A two-year study in a Sichuan citrus orchard found polyurethane-coated urea cut ammonia losses by 51.1% and nitric oxide emissions by 36.3% versus conventional urea, and raised fruit yield in the second year. Humic acid urea increased nitrous oxide emissions by 16.1%.
Controlled-release urea improves nitrogen efficiency, which could modestly reduce demand for conventional urea over time. Urea prices in Brazil are rising after a thin Indian tender, keeping nitrogen costs high for growers.
