Fewer Fertilizer Applications:

  • Helps to reduce overall fertilizer expenses, by saving money on fuel and equipment upkeep costs
  • Allows for optimized labor allocation
  • Less time fertilizing frees up crews to complete other value-added tasks
  • By applying enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEFs), nitrogen (N) use can be reduced by up to 40% when compared to conventional fertilizers like urea and ammonium sulfate
  • Saves money and helps to efficiently manage the use of this valued fertilizer resource


Optimum Nutrient Plant Uptake:

  • Minimizes growth flushes, reducing unplanned mowing and clippings/hardscape clean-up
  • Consistent and reliable nutrient delivery minimizes the feast/famine cycle that can cause stress; turfgrass can be more tolerant to weeds and diseases
  • Efficiently works to promote turfgrass appearance and playability, while reducing the need for additional turfgrass maintenance products that may have to be purchased and applied
  • EEF technology, longevity and SGN options enhance the superintendent’s ability to precisely manage fertilization throughout the course to meet specific growth patterns as well as environmental and playing conditions — from close canopies to fairways, roughs and clubhouse areas
  • Environmentally responsible with low potential for nutrient leaching, denitrification, runoff or volatilization

Municipal & INSTiTUTIONAL Manager Advantages

Getting Down to Business Around Your City

In the face of rising operating costs, tighter budgets and environmental pressures, more municipal property managers are applying enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEFs) to maintain green spaces.


With fewer applications you can save time, save money, and can allocate labor to complete other tasks. EEFs also promote green space appearance with more of the applied nitrogen (N) taken up by the turfgrass. Less is left to be lost to the environment through leaching, denitrification, runoff or volitalization.

Professional Grower Advantages

Growing Your Success Greenhouse to Nursery

Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer Advantages:

Whether you are growing stock in nurseries, greenhouses or fields, plants have the potential to do better with controlled-release, slow-release or stabilized nitrogen enhanced efficiency fertilizers (EEFs) that keep nutrients in the root zone over a longer period of time. 


These fertilizers help growers produce healthy, high-quality stock more consistently and predictably, while reducing potential nutrient loss through containers, an important component of any nutrient management plan.

Growing plants that positively impact consumer demand at retail—with less fertilizer and less work—creates more turns and potentially less shrinkage. This is a more efficient and economical way to promote business success in a very competitive marketplace.


Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizers (EEFs) benefits for nurseries:


  1. Improved Nutrient Use Efficiency: EEFs are designed to optimize nutrient uptake by plants, ensuring that a higher percentage of applied nutrients are absorbed and utilized. This results in more efficient use of fertilizers, reducing waste and potentially lowering fertilizer input costs for nurseries.
  2. Reduced Nutrient Loss: EEFs often incorporate technologies or additives that minimize nutrient leaching, volatilization, and runoff. By keeping nutrients in the root zone and available to plants for longer periods, EEFs help minimize environmental impact while maximizing the economic value of applied fertilizers.
  3. Enhanced Plant Health and Quality: The controlled-release mechanisms in EEFs provide a steady and sustained supply of nutrients to plants over time. This promotes more consistent growth and development, leading to healthier, more vigorous plants with improved quality and marketability.
  4. Labor and Time Savings: EEFs require fewer applications compared to traditional fertilizers, thanks to their extended nutrient release characteristics. This reduces the frequency of fertilizer applications, saving nursery staff time and labor costs associated with fertilization tasks.
  5. Environmental Sustainability: By minimizing nutrient runoff and leaching, EEFs help nurseries reduce their environmental footprint and comply with regulations related to nutrient management and water quality. This can lead to potential cost savings associated with regulatory compliance and environmental stewardship efforts.


Overall, the benefits of enhanced efficiency fertilizers in nurseries include improved nutrient use efficiency, reduced nutrient loss, enhanced plant health and quality, labor and time savings, and environmental sustainability. These advantages make EEFs a valuable tool for nurseries seeking to optimize their fertilizer practices and achieve better economic and environmental outcomes.
