So have we established if that are any of these urease inhibitors that are safe for humans?

I haven't heard anyone confirm one that is.

I honestly dont know
What i do know is the inhibitors are made from organophosphates,formaldehyde and i have heard of chlorine based 1 too
Now to my eyes all 3 of them are NOT going to be good for human health either long or short term
And i cant see many dressing up in a full NBC suit to spread fertiliser

Apparently 2-NPT is not an OP

If you're bored, the meta-analysis for various inhibitors can be looked into online.

As with them all, you can pick the one you like the results of best. The UK based ones have found little to no adverse soil effects from npbt. The effectiveness of no and n2o reduction is however moot and depends who you ask and the technicality of their studies.

So money up front for no benefit only greenwashing then?

NBPT is the OP version though so it probably isn't too good for the farmer applying it.

At best, yes.

At worst, you're paying for a product that could be detrimental to your health.

It's more like the powers are going to obligate you to spend on adding something with a dubious benefit to most UK farming soil / weather situations.

They will be requiring you to mix an inhibitor into slurry etc next.

So basically put 30 units of phosphate on and 47 units of potash onto silage ground with slurry in February but after soil sampling there all needing about 30 units phosphate so done that bit. But sac advising 111 units of potash so not even half way there.

Nitrogen looks cheap compared to npk blends i.e £100 more form an to 25.5.5

Thinking I could get away with straight Nitrogen on silage and grazing ground and put the same slurry p and k on after single cut of silage is done. Any suggestions?

About £20 cheaper as a couple weeks ago but still along way to go if nitrogen really is going to get back into the £200's

I'm no expert, but I wouldn't put that amount of potash on in 1 hit. I just put 60 units on at a time.

Think you can get luxury uptake of Potash and you'll remove it in silage.

Yara told us there inhibitor is carcinogenic. However what isn’t?
As with every poison dose is critical.
Prefer to get back to the bad science with un-realistic environmental conditions of NT26 and the insignificant difference in yields.
AN is only a benefit in assimilating protein on milling wheats. I don’t think inhibitors help that issue.

This is important, fertiliser industry falsely claiming yield benefits with this stuff. Well done to niab for setting the record straight.

That's what my child would call "cringe".

I'm not sure whether to like that or be angry!!

Well done to NIAB!

Could you start a seperate thread on urea Inhibitors?

Im sure you could

 

[YELROM]

New season urea £370 getting tempted.
Will it go much lower?

 

[aangus]

Any new prices for an or urea, as its a new month tomorrow?

 

[Chae1]

Im sure you could

Personally I don't care. Will continue to use normal urea. Ordered it already for next year.

Some seem to be getting there knickers in a twist about new rules and regulations.
