The impacts of urease inhibitor and method of application on the bioavailability of urea fertiliser in ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)

The use of urea fertiliser has been associated with relatively poor nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE) due to heavy N losses such as gaseous emissions of ammonia (NH₃) and nitrous oxide (N₂O) and nitrate (NO₃⁻) leaching into surface and ground waters. Improving N use-efficiency of applied urea is the...
