Nitrogen management
N-Edge® 2
40.4% Nitrogen stabilizer
N-Edge 2 is 40.4% NBPT-based nitrogen stabilizer than can be applied to surface applied urea and urea ammonia nitrate (UAN) to prevent the volatilization of ammonia.
Features and benefits
Higher load NBPT based nitrogen stabilizer
Can be applied pre-plant, side-dress or top-dress
Safe and secure
There are a lot of ways that nitrogen can end up out of reach. N-Edge 2 is the safety net, using a higher concentration of proven active ingredient NBPT, superior penetrating agent for better coverage, all at a lower use rate than its predecessor. Because when nitrogen stays where it’s supposed to be, crops and growers win.
Product details
- N-Edge® 2 reduces nitrogen loss, extending the window for rain, irrigation or incorporation of the fertilizer before volatilization occurs
- NBPT reduces nitrogen loss by inhibiting activity of the urease enzyme slowing down the conversion of urea to ammonia gas
- This advanced high-load nitrogen stabilizer increases the efficiency of urea or urea-containing fertilizers for all crops by reducing nitrogen loss to the environment and increasing nutrient availability for plant growth
- This formulation provides superior handling because it dries fast, covers well, reduces dust and enables treated fertilizer to flow better
Use rate
Urea: 2 qt/ton
UAN: 1 qt/ton
Application method
Surface application: pre-plant, pre-emergence, side-dress, top-dress or other post-planting applications
Package sizes
2 x 2.5 gal | 250 gal

With proven active ingredients.
N-Edge 2 is 40.4% NBPT-based nitrogen stabilizer than can be applied to surface applied urea and urea ammonia nitrate (UAN) to prevent the volitation of ammonia.
- Increased protection above ground from volatilization
- NBPT inhibits activity of the enzyme (urease) that breaks down urea
- Slows the conversion of urea to ammonia gas
There’s a better way to reduce loss of nitrogen to the atmosphere. N-Edge 2 nitrogen stabilizer from CHS provides a valuable three-week window of time for rain or incorporation to move fertilizer to the root zone, improving profitability and nutrient stewardship.
3 forms of Nitrogen loss
There are 3 key ways nitrogen can be lost, volatilization, denitrification and leaching. When added together, that is up to 95% of your nitrogen investment that is at risk of loss.
30% volatilization
30% can be lost to the atmosphere through volatilization
5-35% denitrification
5% - 35% can be lost through biological oxidation, or denitrification
30% leaching
As much as 30% can be leached, or lost through soil moisture
Protect nitrogen above ground
Above ground protection
Industry proven NBPT urease inhibitor that prevents naturally occurring urease enzymes from breaking down urea-based nitrogen fertilizers, preventing ammonia volatilization.
What gives N-Edge the edge
Improved formulation
Contains a higher concentration of active ingredient, which means a lower use rate.
Penetrating agent
Ensures the proven active ingredient (NBPT) spreads throughout the treated granule.
Right placement
Bright lime-green color shows where treated fertilizer has been applied, helping to ensure nutrients are in the right place.
Improving nutrient management
Increases the nitrogen efficiency for all crops, turf and forestry by reducing nitrogen loss to the atmosphere.
Superior handling
Penetrates better, dries faster and enables treated fertilizer to perform well under a wide range of conditions.
