Create return customers. Improve ROI. Get the right enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer.

Enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEFs) are forms of fertilizer designed to reduce nutrient losses to the environment.

Nitrogen EEFs are less susceptible to nitrogen loss through leaching, runoff, volatilization or denitrification.

EEFs currently fall into two broad groups: Inhibitors or stabilizers and slow or controlled-release products. Urease inhibitors offer short-term protection against volatilization only. Nitrification inhibitors provide some protection against leaching and denitrification for a period of time. Slow and controlled-release products release nitrogen over some period of time by a variety of mechanisms. Controlled-release products, a special type of slow release fertilizer, release nitrogen in a controlled manner over a specified time period, more closely matching rates of plant demand.

Currently, the only controlled-release product available for broad acre farming is ESN® SMART NITROGEN®. ESN consists of a urea granule encapsulated in a flexible polymer coating that releases nitrogen in response to soil temperature ̶ an important trigger for plant growth. Unlike inhibitors or stabilized products, ESN releases nitrogen when your crops need it, reducing losses to the environment.

ESN’s consistent results and strong yields keep customers coming back, year after year. Plus, ESN won’t set up or degrade in storage, thanks to the polymer coating. That means you don’t have to worry about losing your product investment.
