We provide efficient crop nutrients and environmentally-friendly solutions for the industry, which are essential for the growing world population.

Sustainable crop nutrition solutions are key to overcoming the challenges of food security for the growing world population. We are thus combining effective fertiliser products with customized fertilisation advice. This knowledge is rooted in our long-term field trials and is provided via innovative, digital tools.

We strive for excellence in all we do to benefit our stakeholders.

Excellence drives us in all aspects of our day-to-day work, including operational, commercial and execution excellence. Our focus on strong, continuous improvement is based on our ambition to learn, connect and implement swiftly within our organisation as well as in cooperation with our partners and stakeholders.

OUR GRANULAR FERTILISER RANGE CONSISTS OF:

• Nitrogen fertilisers                        

• Nitrogen plus sulphur fertilisers

With natural deposition of sulphur negligible and the availability of it through organic manures variable, our MYNITRAS® granular compounds are ideal to meet all crop demands throughout the season. 

Volatilisation can affect all fertilizers containing a significant proportion of urea and ammonia nitrogen. Urea and urea ammonium nitrate solution (UAN) are highly sensitive to ammonia volatilisation. The nitrogen that escapes into the air is lost and not available for plant nutrition!

This means that nitrogen fertilizers containing nitrate such as those from LAT Nitrogen are more effective!

Ammonia volatilisation adversely affects the environment and the efficiency of the fertilizers used. It is therefore important to select the right form of nitrogen.

LAT Nitrogen AN 33.5. N is perfectly fitting for UK and Ireland agricultural needs throughout the year!

Discover the advantages of AN 33.5 N

The physical characteristics of granulated fertilizers have a significant influence on the spreading pattern by affecting the behaviour of the granule in the spreader and the way it travels through the air. It is important that these properties do not alter during storage. 

The evenness and precision of spreading depends directly on the quality of the fertilizer.

Especially the granular AN 33.5 N from LAT Nitrogen fulfills the mentioned requirements to achieve such a good CV.

The lower the CV, the better the distribution. The quality of fertilizer distribution is expressed as follows:
A CV between 0% and 10% is excellent
A CV between 10% and 15% is good
A CV between 15% and 20% is poor
A CV above 20% is unacceptable

Imprecise spreading can have serious consequences. It is often visible in strips or waves, showing 30% over or under-dosing. Uneven and imprecise distribution of fertilizer leads to nutrition deficiencies in the plants, resulting in a yield and protein reduction. Too high a dose  than the economic optimum causes a loss in revenue and increases the risk of nitrogen loss.

Precise spreading of solid fertilizer (CV < 10%) means that over 90% of the granules have landed in the right place. That level of precision means that 1 gram of nitrogen per square metre can be applied to achieve 100kg per hectare. Such precision is only available with high-quality homogeneous fertilizers such as those from LAT Nitrogen.

LAT Nitrogen nurtures long-term relations with production and sales partners across the world.  The LAT Nitrogen sales network extends along the Seine, Rhine and Danube from the Atlantic to the Black sea. Nine subsidiaries are located across Europe and additional local sales experts serve customers in almost all European countries.

Unlike our competitors we place immense value on the importance of local knowledge within the countries we trade in. That is why we have a dedicated sales force located in the UK and Ireland focussed on delivering and meting our customer expectations through a network of strategically selected distributors. Due to the close proximity to our plants, we are able to deliver our granulated fertilisers nationwide all year round.

Closely situated to the UK and Irish market, we have the ability to ship vessels from Grand Quevilly in a quick and efficient manner ensuring continuity of supply. 

Our product portfolio for the UK and Ireland is focused on high quality granulated nitrogen and nitrogen sulphur fertilisers all optimally sized to ensure perfect strength and density.  These products are perfectly suited to optimise yields for both arable and grassland growers with physical qualities that provide excellent CV at all spreading widths, even in windy conditions.

Investment in our production facilities have significantly reduced the amount of times our fertilisers are handled, thus maintaining product integrity and ensuring a superior and consistent fertiliser quality.  

Resellers and farmers value this proximity to the market and our reliability in supply of high quality products.
