Utilization of activated carbon produced from Sago hampas (Metroxylon sagu) to reduce ammonia loss from urea.
Surface-applied urea contributes to NH3 loss of N through ammonia volatilization, especially in warm and humid regions. Ammonia loss has been a major problem confronting farmers because additional urea is applied to compensate for the loss which increases cost of fertilization. Activated carbon...
