Maximize your nitrogen efficiency!

Developed by Nutrien Ag Solutions, ESN contains 44% nitrogen and consists of urea enclosed in a flexible polymer coating that protects the nitrogen from loss mechanisms while releasing it gradually and in a controlled rate, depending on soil temperature. ESN provides crops with all the nitrogen they need, when they need it

The ESN's polymer membrane allows moisture to diffuse into the granule, creating a nitrogen solution. The solution moves through the membrane at a rate controlled by soil temperature and responds to the crop's nitrogen needs, reducing losses.

As a controlled-release product, ESN releases nitrogen in response to conditions that trigger plant growth. It provides application flexibility and can be applied at various times throughout the year. It also performs well in a variety of weather conditions.

ESN-coated granules are designed to protect nitrogen and allow it to be released over a period of 50–80 days. Most inhibitors are effective for a significantly shorter period of time.

Coated Granules - Controlled Release

  • LONGER APPLICATION PERIOD
    ESN provides a longer application period in both spring and fall, allowing you to apply fertilizer according to your schedule.
  • EASY TO USE AND APPLY
    ESN is compatible with no-till operations and is easy to mix. It does not form lumps during storage and therefore has a longer shelf life.
  • REDUCED LODGING
    ESN's controlled nitrogen supply can reduce lodging by preventing excessive early tillering
  • ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
    ESN significantly reduces nitrogen loss, offering significant environmental benefits.
