Ammonium nitrate, AN N34,4

Neuron provides you with access to high-quality ammonium nitrate, certified and manufactured in accordance with international standards. The cost and quality of the product are controlled at all stages, from production to delivery.

What are the advantages of ammonium nitrate AN N34.4

Neuron offers an optimal price–quality ratio, making the purchase of fertilizer a profitable investment for farms of any size. Here are the main advantages of our ammonium nitrates:

1. Verified origin — ammonium nitrate is supplied by the reliable manufacturer OSTCHEM, one of the leaders in mineral fertilizers in Ukraine and Eastern Europe.
2. Optimal nitrogen content — the product contains 34.4% nitrogen, ensuring effective crop nutrition both at the start of growth and in critical development stages.
3. Fast action — the ammonium and nitrate forms of nitrogen allow part of the nitrogen to be absorbed immediately, while the rest provides nutrition over an extended period.
4. High water solubility — allows the use of ammonium nitrate fertilizer in drip irrigation systems and tank mixes for foliar feeding.
5. Versatility of use — suitable for most field, vegetable, and fruit crops, including corn, wheat, soybeans, rapeseed, oats, barley, tomatoes, potatoes, and others.
6. Uniform granule size — guarantees consistent application density when spread mechanically.
7. Reduced nitrogen losses — unlike urea, ammonium nitrate is less prone to volatile nitrogen losses, especially when timely incorporated into the soil.
8. Economic benefit — with efficient application, the need for additional feedings decreases, reducing the cost of crop production.
9. Up-to-date information on availability and price — the price per 50 kg is always listed on the website, and Neuron’s logistics ensure stable supplies throughout Ukraine.
10. Guaranteed quality — all products undergo control according to DSTU standards, are accompanied by certificates, and comply with safety norms.

Water solubility and form

The AN N34.4 fertilizer has high solubility — about 35 grams per 100 ml of water at 20 degrees Celsius. This enables effective use of ammonium nitrate both in dry form and in solution for drip irrigation and foliar feeding, significantly increasing the flexibility and productivity of agronomic practices. The granules are uniform, with consistent size, which promotes even application and reduces losses during transportation and storage.

Application for different crops

Ammonium nitrate shows high efficiency on cereals — wheat, barley, oats, corn, soybeans, rapeseed — as well as on industrial crops such as sunflower.

• For wheat and winter crops, ammonium nitrate promotes the formation of a strong root system, increases winter hardiness, and speeds up spring regrowth.
• For corn, the fertilizer stimulates intensive growth, leaf development, and ear formation, which increases yield and grain quality.
• For soybeans and rapeseed, as legume and oilseed crops, feeding with ammonium nitrate provides the nitrogen needed for productive flowering and pod formation, positively affecting oil and protein output.
• Among vegetable crops, ammonium nitrate is especially effective for garlic, cucumbers, tomatoes, and potatoes. It increases plant resistance to diseases, improves taste, and boosts yield.
• For lawns, applying ammonium nitrate enables a uniform, bright green cover, improving density and turf resilience.

General instructions for using AN N34.4

1. Assess the crop’s nitrogen needs

Before application, determine how much nitrogen the specific crop needs at the chosen growth stage. For example, winter crops require different doses depending on the spring vegetation phase: during tillering — 30–60 kg a.i./ha, at the start of stem elongation — another 40–60 kg a.i./ha.

2. Soil analysis

It is recommended to analyze soil nitrogen content to avoid overdosing. This will allow adjustment of the application rate and help avoid fertilizer losses or the risk of excessive nitrate load.

3. Choice of application method

Ammonium nitrate can be applied:

• By broadcast spreading (the traditional option for large areas).
• Locally in rows (relevant at sowing).
• Through fertigation systems (for greenhouse or irrigated crops).

4. Equipment preparation

Set the spreader according to the fertilizer’s granule size (diameter 1.0–4.0 mm). Accuracy is essential — uniform distribution across the field with minimal wind drift.

5. Adapting to weather conditions

The ideal option is application before rain or on moist soil. High moisture ensures rapid dissolution and uptake. Avoid application under intense sun or wind — nitrogen losses may occur due to denitrification or drifting.

6. Adhering to recommended doses for crops

• Wheat: 80–120 kg/ha a.i. (in 2–3 splits).
• Corn: 90–110 kg/ha a.i.
• Sunflower: up to 60 kg/ha a.i.
• Potatoes: 60–90 kg/ha a.i.
• Lawns: 20–30 g/m².
• Cucumbers/tomatoes/garlic: 10–30 g/m² incorporated into soil or as a 1–2% solution (1 L water + 10–20 g nitrate).

7. In-season (foliar) feeding

Ammonium nitrate is suitable for dissolution in water: solubility — 1920 g/L at 20°C. The optimal concentration for foliar feeding is 0.5–1.0%. It is important not to exceed the rate to avoid leaf burn.

8. Safety precautions

Work with gloves; avoid moisture entering the packaging. Store in a dry, ventilated area. Do not mix with organic substances or flammable materials.

9. Post-application monitoring

Assess crop condition after 5–10 days. If there are signs of deficiency or excess nitrogen (leaf yellowing, growth suppression, or excessive vegetative growth), a rate adjustment may be necessary.

10. Application frequency

For annual crops — 1–2 applications per season. For perennials — a main spring feeding plus possible summer in-season feeding.

This algorithm allows you to get maximum efficiency from ammonium nitrate while conserving resources and avoiding harm to the crop or soil.

Environmental safety of AN N34.4

Using ammonium nitrate in compliance with rates and recommendations reduces the risk of nitrogen losses and negative environmental impact.

The fertilizer breaks down quickly and completely, minimizing greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, it is important to avoid excessive application to prevent nitrate leaching into groundwater, which can lead to pollution.
