Abstract/Contents:"Nitrogen sources can be divided into two general groups: (1) quickly-available and (2) slowly-available ... Various combinations are available in many mixed fertilizers which may vary widely in the source and amount of quickly- and slowly-available nitrogen....Slowly-available nitrogen sources can be classified according to the mechanism controlling the release of nitrogen. The three major groups and fertilizer sources included in each are:" Organic (carbon) compounds dependent on microbial decomposition for nitrogen release (nitrogen, methylene ureas, methylol ureas, natural organics), organic compounds of low water solubility that release nitrogen by slow dissolution of the fertilizer particle (IBDU), and soluble sources that are coated forming [a] physical barrier or shell that delays dissolution (sulfur-coated urea).
