Black Urea®
Black Urea® is the leading technology of greater nitrogen use efficiency. Black Urea® is specifically formulated to reduce losses, up to 25%-30%. So more nitrogen is available for your crops than with un-coated urea.
Nitrogen Losses
Poor Use Efficiency
Nitrogen is one of the most expensive nutrients to supply to crops, and commercial fertilisers represent a significant portion of the cost of crop production. Compounding the cost is the fact that not all the nitrogen that granular urea fertiliser delivers actually reaches the crops.
In the field, it’s been observed that around 40% of the nitrogen released by fertiliser reaches crops.
That’s significantly under efficiency levels of up to 90% that have been recorded in well-managed research plots and in the field.
A Solution
Black Urea®
Black Urea® Innovation works by making small improvements to each leg of the nitrogen cycle in your soil. By using biological processes to stabilize nutrients in the soil, this promotes less volatilization and leaching creating greater Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE).
Black Urea® enables you to cut your fertilizer input rate while producing a greater yield, resulting in a 10-20% improvement in your total profit.With this improved absorption, you may now purchase less fertilizer while achieving the same or even better results.
How It works
The Coating
Does Black Urea®Work Everywhere?
Does Black Urea®Work Everywhere?
The patented coating Launch® contains carbon organic-catalysts (humic, fulvic, ulmic, amino acids, plus melanins, peptides, polysaccharides, vitamins, minerals & surfactants) that provide a very high nutrient exchange capacity around the fertiliser granule and serve soil microorganisms an extremely high energy packet.

Does Black Urea®Work Everywhere?
Does Black Urea®Work Everywhere?
Yes but not always economically. By working on a physical and biological level, only where these processes are limiting will an economically viable result persist. Soils with <3% soil organic matter (SOM) and/or a low cation exchange capacity (CEC) will always perform to expectations, soils out of this range may perform if biological activity is suppressed due to other environmental influences.
Why Not Just Humic Acid?
Does Black Urea®Work Everywhere?
Why Not Just Humic Acid?
We do include a small amount of technical humic acid to provide exchange capacity (and colour). Only those humic compounds with a specific ratio of functional groups and with a very high surface area are effective at these small amounts and none are capable of increasing the metabolic necessity of target soil microbes by themselves.
Maximise Your Nitrogen
Black Urea® has the unique quality of extended release capabilities for your crop. This product has been industry tested to show that an extra 25% Nitrogen is being absorbed into the plant because it delivers more activity into the nitrogen cycle. Stop wasting time applying extra urea to your property when the solution is right here!
Minimise Your Inputs
With our ever increasing farm input bills, Advanced Nutrients is paving the way with efficient technology for your business. Your next nitrogen purchase can save you thousands of dollars by simply applying Black Urea® to your next crop.
As part of Black Urea®’s uniqueness it can be applied via any means and at any time of the crop cycle reducing the risk of loss.
Maximise Your Profit
Black Urea® allows you to reduce your fertiliser input rate while still delivering a higher yield, giving you an overall increase of 10-20% profit in your pocket. With such increased uptake, you can now buy less fertiliser to gain the same or even better results. This is the cost efficiency that you have always been searching for – you can now save 10-20% on your yearly fertiliser bill.
