Nitrogen fertilizer is one of the most widely used and important fertilizer types in modern agriculture. Urea accounts for more than two-thirds of total nitrogen fertilizer use. Under normal conditions, however, urea is quickly decomposed by urease in the soil. The utilization rate of urea is usually only 30%–40%, so the fertilizer effect period is very short. This not only wastes nitrogen fertilizer resources and increases planting costs, but can also bring problems such as soil compaction and environmental pressure.

Urease inhibitors can inhibit the activity of soil urease, helping to inhibit and slow nitrogen release. The use of soil urease inhibitors can effectively slow down the process of urea decomposition into ammonia, reduce the concentration of NH4+ and NH3 in the soil, reduce waste, and extend the diffusion time of nitrogen fertilizer at the fertilization point. This helps synchronize soil fertilizer supply with crop fertilizer demand. According to the product profile, this can increase the effective utilization rate of nitrogen fertilizer by 30%–40%.

NBPT is widely used in the United States, Brazil, Germany, and other countries. It is considered an advanced soil nitrogen fertilizer urease inhibitor with excellent effects, wide application, and high cost performance.

According to the supplied product profile, NBPT offers the following properties:

1. It does not produce toxic effects on plants.
2. It is completely decomposed in the soil; the final decomposition products are phosphate, water, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxides.
3. There is no residue in harvested agricultural products.
4. There is no risk to soil, microorganisms, water bodies, humans, and animals.
5. There is no leaching in the soil.

The half-life after entering the soil is 7 to 8 days, and it will not affect the next crop. The final decomposition products are mainly ammonium, sulfate, phosphate, and other substances.

NBPT can also be processed into a long-acting slow-release compound fertilizer through an appropriate process and in a suitable proportion. This long-lasting fertilizer containing NBPT is mainly used in field crops and some long-growing-period vegetables, orchards, trees, corn, wheat, palm trees, and other crops.

Actual dosage and application methods should be adjusted according to local soil conditions, crop types, climate, and registration requirements.
