Contemporary agricultural research has clearly shown that different sources of Nitrogen affect the growth and yield of crops in a different way.

The standard for the evaluation of Nitrogen fertilizers is their capacity to supply plants with absorbable forms of Nitrogen and to promote the quantitative and qualitative features of production.

Nutrammon® are high-quality Nitrogen fertilizers, which have been developed so as to ensure this requisite as much as possible. The two absorbable by plants forms of Ammoniacal ΝΗ4 and Nitric ΝΟ3 Nitrogen are combined in their granule in absolute purity and in a balanced ratio (50: 50).

Fast absorption of Nitric covers the immediate demands of crops, while the Ammoniacal fraction works as a “reserve””, ensuring their medium-term supply. Nitrogen is absorbed in an easy and immediate way, without the interpolation of any external factors between plant and fertilizer, as is the case with Urea and Ammonium Sulphate.

Nitrogen

Nitrogen, Water, Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen are fundamental nutrients for life in general and every living being in nature. In the case of plants, Nitrogen is more involved than any other nutrient in the formation of the plant body and the vital functions of development and production. As a component of chlorophyll, it is involved in the process of photosynthesis and the production of carbohydrates, which form the base of the food chain and the only reason why humans developed agriculture. As a structural element of amino acids, proteins and nucleic acids, Nitrogen has a pivotal role in energy conversions, plant reproduction throughout time, and in the growth and yield of crops. Lack of Nitrogen leads to a less fertile soil, stunted growth, premature decay of the plants, reduced production, and poorer quality. Its overabundance favors the production of plants which are vulnerable to diseases and environmental conditions, delays flowering, reduces fruit setting, delays ripening, and harms production. Sufficient supply and the rational management of Nitrogen are the most important factors for the health and productivity of crops in contemporary agriculture.

Sources of Nitrogen for plants

Nitrogen is the most abundant atmospheric gas and it occupies 78% of the total volume of the atmosphere. It ranges from 0,05 to 0,4% on the surface layer of the ground and it is found nearly in its entirety in organic form. Despite the fact that crops develop in an environment with an abundance of Nitrogen, plants – with the exception of legumes – cannot absorb and utilize atmospheric Nitrogen. They cannot utilize the organic Nitrogen in the soil unless it has already been broken down and converted to absorbable forms. This is why lack of Nitrogen is the most common nutritional deficiency in crops and the main factor preventing high yields. The rational management of Nitrogen and sufficient supply of it to the crops has been a basic pursuit of agricultural practice throughout time, has been a catalyst in the development of cropping systems, and is directly linked to the development of agriculture from ancient times to this day.

Absorbance of Νitrogen

Plants absorb the Nitrogen in the soil in Nitric (ΝΟ3-Ν) form and in Ammoniacal (ΝΗ4-Ν) form. Ammoniacal Nitrogen forms strong bonds with the soil and is absorbed by the roots of plants as they grow and come in contact with soil particles. Nitric Nitrogen moves freely in the soil, approaches the roots, and is absorbed by plants through the water in the soil. It is crucial that both forms of Nitrogen are present in the soil for crops to have a healthy development, for increased yield, and for a better production quality.

Nutrammon 33,5-0-0

High-quality Nitrogen fertilizer (Ammonium Nitrate), with a balanced ratio (1:1) of Nitric and Ammoniacal Nitrogen. It is at a significant advantage to other Nitrogenous fertilizers, as the Nitrogen contained is readily absorbable and does not require intermediate conversions inside the soil to become assimilable by the plants, as in the case of Urea*.

Therefore, it directly ensures the necessary energy for a robust growth of the root and the above-ground part of the plants. It has a negligible effect on soil acidity, while its chemical composition improves the absorption of other nutrients, such as Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca) and Magnesium (Mg), boosting flowering and fruit setting. Nutrammon 33.5-0-0 increases production and stimulates the synthesis of proteins in the plants. It thus contributes to the improvement of the qualitative characteristics of many extensive crops, particularly cereals. With uniform and compact granules, it has been designed to ensure a large area of application without gaps on the field, and to perfectly meet the needs of field crops, arboriculture, and horticulture.

* To date, all known experimental data confirm the comparative advantages of the Ammoniacal form of Nitrogen over its Ureic form, indicating the significantly higher productivity of crops that are fertilized with Ammonium Nitrate (Nutrammon) compared to those that are fertilized with Urea.

Nutrammon solub. 34,5-0-0

High-purity Nitrogen fertilizer, with a balanced ratio (1:1) of Nitric and Ammoniacal Nitrogen. Its specialized production process and chemical composition ensure complete solubility and make it ideal to use in crops through fertigation systems.

A supply of fully water-soluble and assimilable Nitrogen provides the energy required for the rapid growth of the root and the above-ground part to the crop without any delay. Robust growth, high yields, and products rich in proteins and carbohydrates are thus achieved.
