Anyone know what BASF limus urease inhibitor costs per litre [or per tonne ] as a liquid fert admix ? Anyone tried it ? How did you get on?
Just thinking while it stays dry we should be thinking about this.
Thanks in advance.

Ordered some today cost £21 per litre and comes in 5 litre cans rate varies with the fertiliser being used but in the range 0.3 to 1 litre per 1000 litres of fertiliser

Many thanks. I can do some meaningful sums on that basis.
If I am applying 80 kg/ha N, 204 l/ha of 30-0-0-6 (765litres/tonne) then its approx £5.60 /ha at the full 1 litre/tonne rate. Got to be worth it in these dry times with no immediate rain forecast.
Much appreciated.

Been using it today .7 litres per 1000 litres of omex 24-7.5
Applying 250l/h so works out about £3.75/h
Got to be worth a go in these conditions

@Fromebridge Are these type of products in trials for this year please?

I can see these being compulsory in future for nitrous/ammonia emissions control but for now I’ll keep my money in my own pocket, not BASF’s.

Have asked but no response yet. Similar products didn't work in previous trials in a dry spring though
