CENTURO™ Nitrogen Stabilizer

Featuring the patented active ingredient Pronitridine, CENTURO™ nitrogen stabilizer offers highly-effective below-ground protection against leaching and denitrification. CENTURO is noncorrosive to the metals used in anhydrous ammonia and UAN equipment, making it easy to handle and gentle on equipment — reducing downtime associated with equipment damage.

Yield Results

Optimized Yield Results

By keeping more nitrogen available for plant uptake, research has shown CENTURO can improve yields. Across a three-year study in Nebraska, Illinois and Missouri, fall-applied CENTURO treated ammonia increased corn yield by an average of 6 bu/acre compared to untreated fall-applied ammonia, and spring-applied CENTURO treated ammonia increased corn yield by an average of 6 bu/acre compared to untreated spring-applied ammonia.

Features & Benefits

Proven Efficiency

CENTURO nitrogen stabilizer has helped growers meet their nutrient management, nitrogen efficiency and yield goals, and has quickly become a proven nitrification inhibitor for anhydrous ammonia and UAN. Its noncorrosive formula is gentle on equipment and continues to be an easy-to-handle solution.

3X Longer ProtectionCENTURO is proven to keep applied nitrogen in the ammonium form three times longer than without an inhibitor.¹

Subzero Freeze PointCENTURO boasts a freeze point of -23° C (-9° F) and can be stored for two years without degrading.

Flexible Storage OptionsCENTURO is highly stable and noncorrosive, eliminating the need for explosion-proof equipment or stainless-steel storage

Improved Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE)In third-party research studies conducted in the U.S. from 2016 and 2017, CENTURO improved nitrogen use efficiency in anhydrous ammonia by up to 25 percent. ²Both CENTURO treated ammonia and untreated ammonia applied at 100% of the nitrogen rate or an average application rate of 200 lbs/acre.

Will Not Swell O-RingsCENTURO can remain in pumps over time without affecting their operation and washing or rinsing equipment between use is not necessary. This reduces your overall downtime by eliminating time spent maintaining and repairing equipment.
