Controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer is a granulated fertilizer that releases nutrients gradually into the ground. Controlled-release nitrogen fertilizers have exhibited significant potential for reducing nitrogen losses and synchronizing nitrogen release according to crop demand, thereby improving the nitrogen use efficiency. Controlled nitrogen release fertilizers can reduce nitrogen losses by delaying the initial nitrogen supply and providing it gradually to the developing crop. The controlled release nitrogen fertilizer is considered to be a good source of nitrogen for the crops. It have been developed to enable the slow release of nitrogen into the soil during the crop growing seasons. It has shown good potential in the reduction of nitrogen losses and in the synchronization of nitrogen release as per the plant’s demand, thus resulting in the improvement of the nitrogen use efficiency. It also plays a very crucial role in the improvement of the microbial community in the rhizosphere. Urea-formaldehyde fertilizer is one of the types of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer, which when applied to the bulbs and main roots of plants such as onion and sugar beets resulted in the change of diversity of the microbial community and the abundances of certain bacterial species. This unexpected effect proved to be beneficial to the growth of plants as the bacterial strains were identified as a plant growth promoting bacteria. Also the use of such controlled release nitrogen fertilizer enhances the number of bacterial strains that are capable of metabolizing the CI compounds. The application of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer not only proves to be an effective source of nitrogen but also serves as a useful driving force for the control of microbial community structure in the phytosphere that can lead to innovative changes in the application of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer in modern agriculture.

Wide application of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer in the turf grasses, sports fields and lawns

The use of controlled release nitrogen fertilizer is a good practice adopted for the fertilization of turfs on sports fields. These fertilizers provides advantages such as reducing the labor costs and reduces the risk of foliar burn, thus providing a more evenly supply of nitrogen. They also helps in reduction of nitrogen leaching. Conventional fertilizers often experience a slow release rate in cool temperatures, but the controlled nitrogen fertilizers like isobutylidene diurea (IBDU) and sulfur coated urea (SCU) are independent of the soil microbial action, therefor there is no reduction in the nitrogen release rate of such fertilizers in the golf courses. The use of controlled release nitrogen fertilizers is highly recommended on the sand-amended areas of the golf courses like greens and tees that have higher leaching potential. The fertilization of the golf courses in raises the need for controlled release nitrogen fertilizer. The slow or controlled release nitrogen fertilizers such as sulfur coated urea, polymer coated urea, methylene urea and IBDU helps in providing extended period of nutrition to the sports fields which can last up to 20 weeks. It is also observed that the growth and the color of turf grasses remains uniform during the treatment with the controlled release nitrogen fertilizers. Studies have also revealed that the application of certain controlled releases nitrogen fertilizers can give rise to the most consistent quality turf grass. Besides this, the controlled release nitrogen fertilizer such as IBDU, ethylene urea, sulfur coated urea and polymer coated area are highly suitable for the professional use in typical home lawn fertilization.
