Nitrogen management
N-Edge®
Nitrogen stabilizer
N-Edge reduces nitrogen loss, providing a valuable window of time for rain, irrigation or incorporation to move fertilizer to the root zone before volatilization occurs.
Features and benefits
NBPT inhibits activity of the urease enzyme that breaks down urea
Slows the conversion of urea to ammonia gas
Safe and secure
Cut losses to the atmosphere, help ensure nitrogen moves to the root zone and protect fertilizer investments. N-Edge is a 26.7% NBPT-based Nitrogen stabilizer that can be applied to surface applied urea and urea ammonia nitrate (UAN) to prevent the volitation of ammonia.
Product details
- Contains a penetrating agent that ensures its proven active ingredient, NBPT, spreads throughout the treated fertilizer granule for maximum effectiveness
- Increases the efficiency of urea or urea-containing fertilizers for all crops, turf and forestry
- Provides superior handling because it dries faster, covers better, produces less dust and enables treated fertilizer to flow better
- The product’s bright green color makes it easy to see where treated fertilizer has been applied, helping to ensure nutrients are in the right place
Use rate
Urea: 3 qt/ton
UAN: 1 .5-2 .5 qt/ton
Application method
Surface application of urea and urea containing fertilizers such as pre-plant, pre-emergence, side-dress, top-dress or other post-planting applications
Package sizes
2x2.5 gal | 250 gal

With proven active ingredients.
N-Edge contains a proven active ingredient, NBPT, and a superior penetrating agent.
- Protects above ground nitrogen from volatilization
- NBPT inhibits activity of the urease enzyme that breaks down urea
- Slows the conversion of urea to ammonia gas
There’s a better way to reduce loss of nitrogen, and it is with industry-proven ingredients. N-Edge® nitrogen stabilizer from CHS provides a valuable two- to three-week window of time for rain or incorporation to move fertilizer to the root zone, improving profitability and nutrient stewardship.
3 forms of Nitrogen loss
There are 3 key ways nitrogen can be lost, volatilization, denitrification and leaching. When added together, that is up to 95% of your nitrogen investment that is at risk of loss.
30% volatilization
30% can be lost to the atmosphere through volatilization
5-35% denitrification
5% - 35% can be lost through biological oxidation, or denitrification
30% leaching
As much as 30% can be leached, or lost through soil moisture
Protect nitrogen above ground
Above ground protection
Industry proven NBPT urease inhibitor that prevents naturally occurring urease enzymes from breaking down urea-based nitrogen fertilizers, preventing ammonia volatilization.
What gives N-Edge the edge
Penetrating agent
Ensures the proven active ingredient (NBPT) spreads throughout the treated granule.
Superior handling
Penetrates better, dries faster and enables treated fertilizer to perform well under a wide range of conditions.
Right placement
Bright green color shows where treated fertilizer has been applied, helping to ensure nutrients are in the right place.
Improving nutrient management
Increases the nitrogen efficiency for all crops, turf and forestry by reducing nitrogen loss to the atmosphere.
