CAN offers maximum efficiency

Less nitrogen required with CAN

Virtually maximum yields can be attained with all forms of fertilizers, but fertilizing with CAN can often achieve this with less nitrogen.
With the same amount of nitrogen, a higher nitrogen extraction produces the higher efficiency of CAN fertilization compared to using urea or urean. Higher N extraction is promoted by improved N availability and lower N losses using CAN.

Virtually constantly higher yields with Nutramon CAN

The nitrate nitrogen in CAN increases yield reliability. Trials with wheat show at most single sites that the use of nitrates gives a clear increase in yield.

Reasons for the better effect of CAN

• First of all, with urea the nitrogen needs to be converted to nitrate accessible to plants
• The location and weather-related factors also delay this conversion and lead to reduced N availability
• Dry conditions, high temperature and pH values increase N losses when urea is used

Other advantages of Nutramopn-CAN over urea

• Lower acidification of CAN because of its lime content
• Additional MgO reduces the amount of fertilizer required
• Better spreading properties for more precise application
