Urea, also known as carbamide, is an organic compound with chemical formula CO(NH2)2. This amide has two –NH2 groups joined by a carbonyl (C=O) functional group.
More than 90% of world industrial production of urea is destined for use as a nitrogen-release fertilizer. Urea has the highest nitrogen content of all solid nitrogenous fertilizers in common use. Therefore, it has a low transportation cost per unit of nitrogen nutrient. The most common impurity of synthetic urea is biuret, which impairs plant growth.
Questions? You’re covered.
Urea is an efficient source of nitrogen for plants, promoting growth, yield, and protein synthesis. It is applied to soil or crops as a granular fertilizer, providing a readily available source of nitrogen for plant uptake. Urea's high nitrogen content and ease of handling make it a popular choice among farmers for enhancing crop productivity.
Urea offers environmental benefits such as efficient nitrogen utilization by plants and reduced nitrogen runoff compared to other nitrogen fertilizers. However, challenges include the potential for nitrogen leaching into groundwater, nitrous oxide emissions, and nutrient imbalances if not applied correctly.
Urea granules are relatively safe to handle, but precautions should be taken to prevent inhalation, ingestion, or contact with skin and eyes. Protective clothing, gloves, and goggles should be worn when handling urea, and proper storage and handling procedures should be followed to prevent spills and exposure.
