The use of zinc-coated urea in combination with phosphatic fertilizers in crops is a strategic agricultural practice aimed at enhancing crop nutrition, growth, and yield. In this video, I will let you know that can we use Zabardast Urea (Coated with bioactive Zinc ) with phosphatic fertilizers or not, if yes then how we can use it for better results. It is based on the latest research published in Frontiers journal. Here are the key aspects of this practice:
1. Zinc Coated Urea:
• Release Pattern: Zinc-coated urea is designed to provide a controlled and gradual release of urea, promoting more efficient nutrient uptake by crops over an extended period.
• Nutrient Protection: The zinc coating serves as a protective layer, reducing nitrogen losses through volatilization and leaching. This helps in maximizing the use of applied nitrogen by crops.
• Reduced Environmental Impact: The controlled release characteristic helps minimize environmental impacts, as nitrogen is released in sync with the crop's demand, reducing the risk of excess nutrients entering water bodies.
2. Phosphatic Fertilizers:
• Phosphorus Importance: Phosphorus is a crucial nutrient for plant development, playing a key role in processes such as energy transfer, root development, and flowering.
• Phosphate Fertilizers: Phosphatic fertilizers, such as diammonium phosphate (DAP) or triple superphosphate (TSP), are commonly used to supply phosphorus to crops.
3. Benefits of Combined Use:
• Enhanced Nutrient Efficiency: Combining zinc-coated urea with phosphatic fertilizers enhances nutrient use efficiency, ensuring that both nitrogen and phosphorus are available to the crops when needed.
• Zinc as a Micronutrient: Zinc is an essential micronutrient for plants, playing a vital role in various physiological processes. Its availability is crucial for proper crop growth, development, and yield.
• Synergistic Effects: Zinc and phosphorus can have synergistic effects on plant metabolism. Adequate zinc levels can enhance the plant's ability to take up and utilize phosphorus.
4. Application Recommendations:
• Timing: Apply zinc-coated urea and phosphatic fertilizers at the recommended crop growth stages. This may vary depending on the specific crop and regional agricultural practices.
• Application Rates: Follow recommended application rates for both zinc-coated urea and phosphatic fertilizers based on soil nutrient levels, crop requirements, and local agronomic guidelines.
• Soil Testing: Conduct soil tests to assess zinc and phosphorus levels in the soil. Adjust fertilizer application based on soil test results to address specific nutrient deficiencies.
5. Considerations:
• Crop-Specific Requirements: Different crops may have varying nutrient requirements. Tailor the application of zinc-coated urea and phosphatic fertilizers based on the specific needs of the crop being cultivated.
• Environmental Impact: While these practices can enhance nutrient use efficiency, it's essential to consider environmental factors and adhere to sustainable agricultural practices to minimize potential negative impacts.
Utilizing zinc-coated urea in conjunction with phosphatic fertilizers is a comprehensive approach to optimizing nutrient management in agriculture. This practice aims to improve nutrient availability, enhance crop performance, and contribute to sustainable and efficient agricultural practices. Farmers are encouraged to consult with local agronomic experts and follow regional guidelines for the best results.
Engro Zabardast Urea launched in 2017, is yet another leap forward by EFERT in pioneering next generation fertilizers in Pakistan. This product is developed in collaboration with Niha Corp USA.

It has a unique combination of Nitrogen (42%), Bioactive Zinc (1%) and a consortium of beneficial microbes that mobilize nutrients in soil and enhance crop resistance. Engro Zabardast Urea is beneficial for all the crops as it increases crop yields, improves quality and enriches zinc contents in produce. It is marketed in a 50 kg bag.
