Who it may suit

  • Situations where your soil test and budget call for nitrogen only: 27 kg of N in every 100 kg of product.
  • We list it under paddock crops.
  • Crop-by-crop suitability is not something we have verified for this product. Use your soil test and agronomist, or Find my fertiliser for soil and pH-based nitrogen options.

Application calculator

How much of this product delivers a given amount of nitrogen, and what that costs. Working out the target? See the nitrogen rate calculator. The starting value is an example, not a recommendation.

Product to spread
185 kg/ha

Rate = target ÷ 27% nitrogen (N). Excludes freight, spreading, GST and any nitrogen lost to the air. Not a recommendation: always check with your agronomist before acting.

Nitrogen loss: ammonium nitrate types

  • Ammonium nitrate has no gaseous losses after application except on highly calcareous soils; nitrate is readily leached, particularly on sands.
