Urea, also known as carbamide, is a nitrogen-rich compound widely used as a fertilizer in agriculture and in various industrial applications. Its high nitrogen content, typically around 46%, makes it one of the most concentrated nitrogen fertilizers available, promoting plant growth and enhancing crop yields. Urea is highly soluble in water, allowing for easy absorption by plants and efficient nutrient delivery.
Beyond agriculture, urea is used in industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. It is a key component in the production of resins, plastics, and as an additive in diesel exhaust systems to reduce emissions. Its versatility and cost-effectiveness make urea an essential resource for both agricultural and industrial applications, supporting sustainable practices and contributing to global food security.
