  • Resumen
    • A one year field experiment was conducted to assess the efficiency of urea fertilizer applied to pasture near Lincoln University, New Zealand. Urea with or without () molybdenum (Mo) were applied to field plot, with a urease inhibitor [N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT), nBTPT + elemental sulphur (S), and nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) + nBTPT defined as a double inhibitor (DI) in spring 2005. Mo was sprayed at the rate of 50 g Mo/ha/yr once. Urea various inhibitor and S treatments were broadcast at a rate of 30 kg N/ha 5 times over one year. The Mo alone treatment increased pasture dry matter (PDM) yield by 8.9%. Molybdenum, when applied together with urea+nBTPT+S, urea+nBTPT and urea alone, caused an initial depression in PDM yield by 14.2, 13 and 5.6% respectively. However, these depressions in yield disappeared from the second pasture cut. Over a one year period, Mo applied with urea+nBTPT, urea+DI and urea+nBTPT+S produced 18179, 16716 and 18253 kg DM ha-1 respectively, compared to 16171 kg ha-1 for urea+Mo. Pastures which received no Mo, but were treated with urea+nBTPT+S, or urea+nBTPT produced 18982 and 18276 kg DM ha-1 respectively, compared to 16363 kg ha-1 for urea alone, giving an increase of 16% and 12% over urea alone. Pastures receiving Mo, together with urea+nBTPT or urea+nBTPT+S, also showed improvement in N uptake and N recovery, compared to urea alone. Applying urea with nBTPT and S have the most potential to improve urea efficiency.
