Description
N-(n-butyl)Thiophosphoric Triamide, commonly known as NBPT,It is a kind of Fertilizer Synergist.At the same time it is a urease inhibitor that is used to enhance the efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers. It has become increasingly popular due to its ability to reduce nitrogen losses and improve crop yields, making it an essential tool for farmers worldwide. One of the primary benefits of NBPT is its ability to reduce ammonia volatilization. Another benefit of NBPT is its ability to reduce leaching. Leaching occurs when nitrogen is lost from the soil due to water movement. This can lead to a decrease in crop yields and environmental pollution. NBPT helps to reduce leaching by slowing down the conversion of urea into ammonia, which allows more time for the nitrogen to be taken up by plants. This results in less nitrogen being lost through leaching, leading to improved crop yields and reduced environmental pollution.
In addition, we also provide many competitive Plant Growth Regulators and Biofungicide for plants. Please feel free to inquire!

What will plants benefit from N-(n-Butyl)Thiophosphoric Triamide/NBPT?
1. N-(n-butyl)Thiophosphoric Triamide (NBPT) is a widely used agricultural chemical that is added to urea-based fertilizers to reduce nitrogen loss through volatilization.
2. NBPT works by inhibiting the enzyme urease, which breaks down urea into ammonia gas. By slowing down this process, NBPT helps to keep more nitrogen in the soil where it can be taken up by plants.
3. The use of NBPT in agriculture can help to improve crop yields and reduce the amount of fertilizer needed, which can be both cost-effective and environmentally beneficial.
4. NBPT is particularly effective in reducing nitrogen loss in high-pH soils, where urea-based fertilizers are especially prone to volatilization.
5. While NBPT is generally considered safe for use in agriculture, it is important to follow proper handling and application procedures to minimize any potential risks to human health or the environment.
