effects of ammonium thiosulfate and guanyl thiourea as calcium ammonium nitrate inhibitors on fertilization and plants

the nitrate inhibition effects and decomposition of ammonium thiosulfate and guanyl thiourea, which are nitrification inhibitors, are discussed. when ammonium thiosulfate and guanyl thiourea are used as nitrification inhibitors, leaching of ammonium nitrate from calcium ammonium nitrate in soil is reduced, while the yields and nitrogen intake of the plant are increased.

when ammonium thiosulfate and guanyl thiourea are used, labor costs are reduced without any loss of product yield or quality. the use of ammonium nitrate products containing ammonium thiosulfate and guanyl thiourea reduces the nitrogen requirement for maximum efficiency.
