Redefinig Bang For Your Buck With ECTOL Inputs

If urea is in your input program, current market volatility will create significant pressure in the weeks and months ahead. With prices reportedly rising by 45% and hitting the $1,200/tonne mark, many growers may find this conventional input increasingly difficult to sustain.

As Victorian grower Mr. Everitt recently noted in The Weekly Times:

"A price of $1200 a tonne for urea is unsustainable with $300 a tonne wheat... People are going to start thinking about alternatives rather than spending that much money on urea to get a crop out of the ground."

If current urea pricing is unsustainable for your bottom line, it may be the right time to shift toward a more sustainable and efficient nitrogen source: NitrotainTE27.

A "Hybrid" Approach to Lower Risk

At ECTOL, we’re seeing more growers move toward "Hybrid" nitrogen programs to lower their risk. By combining traditional methods with high-efficiency liquids, you can maintain yield potential while insulating your business from price spikes.

NitrotainTE27 fits perfectly into this strategy. To mitigate risk and manage costs, we recommend a split-application strategy:

• Use less urea upfront to manage initial costs.

• Follow up with NitrotainTE27 in late autumn to provide a vital boost during critical growth stages.

  
  

Maximize Every Drop with High Efficiency

NitrotainTE27 delivers 27% Nitrogen alongside essential trace elements. While traditional urea is highly susceptible to atmospheric loss and leaching, NitrotainTE27 is engineered for Nutrient Use Efficiency (NUE). It is non-acidifying and non-volatilizing, ensuring that the nutrients you pay for actually reach the plant.

Secure Your Supply Today

• Slow-Release Performance: A standard application of 10L/Ha provides a steady release of nitrogen and trace elements over several weeks.
