Spring rain can dramatically increase nitrogen loss through leaching by pushing nitrogen lower into the soil profile.
Instinct® and N-Serve® nitrogen stabilizers reduce leaching and extend nitrogen availability in the soil for up to eight weeks. By lengthening the time nitrogen is in the soil, Instinct and N-Serve can help your customers achieve an average revenue increase of $21 per acre.*
In most cases, these two products extend nitrogen availability six to eight weeks during critical growth points in a corn plant’s development.
In addition to the yield and economic benefits of using Instinct or N-Serve, there are also important environmental advantages of keeping nitrogen in the soil and out of waterways. Field trials show that the active ingredient in Instinct and N-Serve effectively increase soil nitrogen retention by 28 percent while decreasing leaching into groundwater by more than 16 percent.**
N-Serve has been used with confidence to maximize anhydrous ammonia applications for more than 40 years. Instinct, introduced in 2007, provides growers with a versatile alternative by effectively stabilizing other forms of nitrogen, including urea, UAN and liquid manure.
