Abstract: A mixture for the treatment of urea-containing fertilizers comprises a) at least one (thio)phosphoric acid triamide of the general formula (I) R1R2N—P(X)(NH2)2 and/or (thio)phosphoric acid diamide of the general formula (II) R1O—P(X)(NH2)2, X denoting oxygen or sulfur, R1 and R2 independently from each other being hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted 2-nitrophenyl, C1-10-alkyl, C3-10-cycloalkyl, C3-10-heterocycloalkyl, C6-10-aryl, C6-10-heteroaryl or diaminocarbonyl, where R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen atom connecting them can also form a 5 or 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic group, which optionally may also comprise one or two additional heteroatoms selected from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur, as component A, and b) at least one compound comprising an amino group having a boiling point of more than 100° C. as component B.

Abstract: A watering apparatus comprising a storage container having a tubular section which is closed with an open-cell foam based on an aminoplast, and a method for watering or applying fertilizer.

Abstract: The invention relates to preparations with improved urease-inhibitory effect which comprise at least two different (thio)phosphoric triamides and to urea-comprising fertilizers which comprise these preparations. The invention furthermore relates to a method of preparing these preparations, to the use of these preparations in the fertilization with urea-comprising fertilizers, and to the use of urea-comprising fertilizers which comprise these preparations in agriculture or in horticulture.

Abstract: A plant substrate consisting of (a) 25 to 100% by weight of an open-celled melamine/formaldehyde foam, (b) 0 to 75% by weight of other synthetic plant substrates and/or mineral soil and (c) 0 to 25% by weight of one or more systems for releasing active substances and/or of other additives, can be stored and transported in the absence of any water and makes possible a good aeration in the soil.

Abstract: A watering apparatus comprising a storage container having a tubular section which is closed with an open-cell foam based on an aminoplast, and a method for watering or applying fertilizer.

Abstract: A long-term fertilizer containing nitrogen, contains a mixture of acetylene diurea and at least one other organic fertilizer containing nitrogen, such as methylene urea, isobutylidene diurea, crotonylidene diurea, oxamide, melamine, substituted triazones, ethylene diurea, triuret or mixtures of them.

Abstract: A method is for production of solid agents that contain nutrients for plants, that are coated with at least one biodegradable layer and that are produced by using dispersions containing polymers carrying urethane and urea groups for surface treatment of solid agents containing nutrients for plants.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of diureides of dicarboxylic acids of the formula I in which R is hydrogen or SO2O⊖M⊕, M⊕ is lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium, ammonium, copper, silver, 0.5 iron, 0.5 calcium, 0.5 magnesium, 0.5 manganese, 0.5 zinc or 0.5 cobalt and X is a saturated or monounsaturated, straight-chain or branched C1- to C8-alkyl which may be interrupted by oxygen or NH and which may have attached to it C1- to C4-alkoxy, hydroxyl and/or amino groups, as slow-release fertilizers and to novel diureides of the formula Ia in which R is SO2O⊖M⊕, M⊕ is lithium, sodium, potassium, cesium, ammonium, copper, silver, 0.5 iron, 0.5 calcium, 0.5 magnesium, 0.5 manganese, 0.5 zinc or 0.5 cobalt and n is 1, 2, 3 or 4, and a process for their preparation.
