Question

What is the formula for extracting the required nitrogen × 2.17?

• A. Ammonium Sulphate content
• B. C.A.N. content
• C. FYM content
• D. Urea content

Hint:

To calculate urea needed for a given nitrogen requirement, multiply nitrogen by 2.17.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The formula to extract the required nitrogen involves multiplying by 2.17 when calculating urea content. This factor accounts for the nitrogen percentage in urea fertilizer, which is approximately 46%. Hence, required nitrogen × 2.17 gives the amount of urea needed.
