Application of Urea
90% of the urea produced is used as fertilizer. It is added to soil and provides nitrogen to plants. Low-biuret (less than 0.03%) urea is used as a foliar fertilizer. It dissolves in water and is applied to the leaves of plants, especially fruit and citrus. Urea fertilizer has the advantage of providing a high nitrogen content, which is essential in plant metabolism in direct relation to the amount of stems and leaves, which absorb light for photosynthesis.
