Applied on the soil surface to help reduce nitrogen losses through volatilisation.
More efficiency. More flexibility. More productivity.
Green Urea NV is an enhanced efficiency fertiliser designed to support nitrogen retention and improve nutrient performance.
Developed for Australian farmers who want to reduce nitrogen losses, improve efficiency, and maximise return on investment.
A proven urease inhibitor, Green Urea NV keeps nitrogen where it belongs, in the soil, feeding your crop or pasture.
Our extensive field trials show up to 89% reduction in nitrogen volatilisation losses, delivering greater nitrogen use efficiency, stronger yields, and improved profitability.
Standard urea can lose up to 33% of applied nitrogen through volatilisation. Green Urea NV slows this process by inhibiting the enzyme urease, meaning more nitrogen remains available for uptake.
Green Urea NV is Incitec Pivot’s patented urease inhibitor (NBPT + unique solvent package) that is coated onto Granular Urea and slows the breakdown of urea in the soil. This reduces nitrogen loss due to volatilisation, ensuring more nitrogen remains available for plant uptake.
Standard urea rapidly converts to ammonia gas. Volatilisation is the loss of nitrogen as ammonia gas (NH3) when urea breaks down on the soil surface before being incorporated by rain or irrigation.
Made for Australian Farmers
Green Urea NV has been proudly developed by Incitec Pivot and formulated specifically for Australian soils and farming conditions.
Our coating technology ensures even coverage, deeper penetration, and reduced dust. It uses an NMP-free formulation designed to deliver safe, consistent performance.
When stored correctly, the coating maintains its effectiveness for more than 12 months.
Green Urea NV is backed by more than 10 years of Incitec Pivot research and has been extensively trialled across the East Coast. Across both pasture and cropping systems, trials have shown consistent reductions in ammonia loss of 71–78% compared with standard urea.
Proven in the field
Green Urea NV has been extensively trialled in 2024 under Australian farming conditions by the Incitec Pivot Research & Development team, in collaboration with the Incitec Pivot Agronomy team. These trials confirm its effectiveness in reducing nitrogen losses and improving nitrogen efficiency across a wide range of soil types and climates.
Field trials conducted by Incitec Pivot across 19 locations demonstrated reductions in ammonia volatilisation of up to 89%, confirming strong nitrogen retention and higher efficiency.
This technology has been developed by science and is backed by our Nutrient Guarantee – ensuring confidence in every tonne delivered.
