Research Summary
Sulfur-coated urea (SCU) is a type of controlled-release fertilizer comprised of urea granules encased in a layer of elemental sulfur. This specialized coating serves to regulate the release of nitrogen into the soil, providing a steady and sustained supply of nutrients to plants over an extended period. As the sulfur-coated urea granules gradually break down in the soil, the sulfur coating reacts with moisture and microbial activity, gradually releasing urea. This slow-release mechanism helps to minimize nitrogen losses through volatilization and leaching, enhancing nutrient efficiency and reducing environmental impacts. Sulfur-coated urea is widely used in agriculture and horticulture for supplying nitrogen to crops and turfgrass, particularly in areas with extended growing seasons or high rainfall, where conventional urea fertilizers may be less effective. Additionally, the sulfur component of SCU provides an additional benefit by supplying sulfur, an essential nutrient for plant growth and soil fertility.
