Goulding SUSTAIN is urea treated with AGROTAIN NBPT, designed to minimise N losses from ammonia volatilisation. It is a urease inhibitor designed to protect yield, achieve quality and save money. It is available as a straight N and in a range of NS and NKS grades.

Works

  • Yield performance consistently equal to or better than CAN across grassland and tillage crops on a wide range of soil types
  • Independently trialled by TEAGASC under both grassland  and tillage
  • TEAGASC trial results show that SUSTAIN® yields are consistently as good as CAN, if not slightly better
  • NBPT is the world’s most research proven urease inhibitor technology
  • Proven in Ireland and UK trials on wheat, barley, OSR, sugar beet and grassland
  • Used extensively on farms across the Ireland and the UK as a straight nitrogen and in a range of NS grades

Spreads

  • Free flowing granular product
  • Proven to spread evenly to 30m+
  • Spreads with all major machines
  • 70% higher nitrogen concentration than CAN
  • Less haulage, storage and reduced product to spread

Saves

  • Generally, SUSTAIN® costs less per unit of nitrogen compared to CAN
  • This helps to save you money on your nitrogen fertiliser inputs
  • It also saves you time, fuel and money

How does it protect the nitrogen?

It holds the nitrogen in the ammonium form for longer.

Is it registered in the EU?

AGROTAIN was the first EU registered urease inhibitor.

How is it different to other urease inhibitors?

AGROTAIN has been on the market for 25+ years and delivers consistent results year after year to growers around the world. It stands above the rest as the original most research proven urease inhibitor in Ireland, the UK and the world. 

Does it reduce emissions? 

  • Reduces ammonia losses by 84% compared to urea - source TEAGASC
  • Reduces nitrous oxide, a Greenhouse Gas, losses by 73% compared to nitrates - source TEAGASC

Is SUSTAIN proven in Ireland and the UK? 

In 41 independent Ireland and UK yield trials, SUSTAIN gave performance equal to or better than nitrates.

Can SUSTAIN increase nitrogen use efficiency?

SUSTAIN increased apparent fertiliser recovery in spring barley by 9% compared to nitrates, source TEAGASC. 

Is AGROTAIN used elsewhere in the world?

It is used in 55 countries on millions of hectares.

Is SUSTAIN stable in the bag and on the soil?

SUSTAIN is stable in the bag for 12 months, and consistently meets and exceeds the minimum active ingredient levels specified by EC fertiliser regulation.

Are there specific restrictions for storing on farm?

No, SUSTAIN does not have specific storage restrictions .

What environmental impact does SUSTAIN have on the soil?

SUSTAIN has no negative impact on the soil.

Need a Carbon Footprint?

Our aim is to provide specific carbon footprints for our products, improving accuracy for recording and reporting. NUTRI-CO2OL, our independently ADAS verified carbon footprint model, was developed to account for changes in raw material sourcing, production and blending sites.

We produce prescription blends across our sites that can make it difficult for us to supply standard spreader settings for every grade. 

Our rigorous checks on raw materials enable us to provide some important indicators about the blend to help guide you when setting your spreader.
