    Anybody use ESN or Agrotain

    I'm looking at using ESN to increase my single shoot fert rate. Has anybody seen yield or protein increase through the slower/longer availability of nitrogen?
    How much more $/lb of N does it generally cost over urea?
    From what I understand Agrotain is delayed for 7-14 days and then is fully released into the moist soil whereas ESN is released over a longer timeframe and won't leach all at once with heavy rain in sandy soil?

        Agree with BTO if he is talking ESN. Worked very well but on the edge of being too pricey.

          It works well but for the extra $100 tonne I will spend it on more urea instead.

            ESN is a useful tool in a single shoot situation and
            works well but has come with a 22% premium.
            That can be hard to swallow, especially when
            Urea is rising again. Agrium building a plant in
            the US now so that should help supply but I don't
            know if that will reduce the premium.

            AgroTain a good option when top-dressing.
