Product Introduction & Main Application
Arnico’s Urea Enriched with Micronutrients is a high-analysis nitrogen fertilizer (minimum 40% N) that is surface-coated with one or more essential trace elements such as Zinc, Iron, Boron, or Manganese. This dual-action product addresses both the primary need for Nitrogen, which drives vegetative growth, and the secondary need for specific micronutrients that are critical for enzyme activity, chlorophyll synthesis, and reproductive development. It prevents and corrects common deficiencies in calcareous and alkaline soils.

3. Features & Benefits
Dual-Action Efficiency: Combines nitrogen fertilization and micronutrient correction in a single field operation, saving significant application costs.
High Bioavailability: The coated micronutrients are in sulfate or chelated form, ensuring immediate plant uptake and rapid correction of deficiency symptoms like interveinal chlorosis (Iron) and rosetting (Zinc).
Uniform Nutrient Distribution: Coating the urea granule ensures that every bit of nitrogen comes with a guaranteed micro-dose of the required trace element, enabling even broadcast distribution.
Enhanced Yield Quality: Boron-enriched formulas improve pollen viability and grain setting, while Zinc-enriched urea directly increases grain protein content in cereals.
Designed for Alkaline Soils: This product is specifically formulated to overcome the nutrient lockup common in the high-pH, calcareous soils of the region.
4. Industrial Applications
Cereals (Wheat, Corn, Rice): Widespread application of Zinc-enriched urea to boost early vigor and final grain yield.
Orchards & Fruit Trees: Iron-enriched urea for preventing and treating iron chlorosis in citrus, stone fruit, and pistachios.
Vegetables: Boron-enriched formulations to prevent hollow stem in cauliflower and cracked fruit in tomatoes.
Oilseeds (Canola): Boron is a critical nutrient for flowering, pollen tube growth, and seed set.
5. Safety & Handling
MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet): This product is a non-flammable solid. The complete MSDS is available upon request.
Storage Conditions: Store in sealed bags in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated area, away from moisture to prevent caking.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Use a dust mask, safety goggles, and work gloves during handling and application.
6. Quality Assurance & COA
Arnico provides a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) for each batch, verifying the Nitrogen content and the exact percentage of each guaranteed micronutrient, ensuring you are applying precisely what your soil test recommends.
