    Anyone buy Urea lately?
    What is the maximum distance one could spread accurately? @Blackgrass.
    Would prills spread to 24m?
    34.5%N is €323/ton
    Urea is €345/ton Today's prices.

    not a hope you could spread prilled urea at 24m. i would say closer to 12 to be accurate.

    I spread prilled at 20m all others at 24. It's on grass:) so overlap not as noticeable.

    Best I can get Urea for is €365 prilled delivered. None bought soil 1.5 degrees

    Do go to 36m with gran but need to tray test first as will normaly need slight adjustment. Prefer liquid route.

    Yes I would prefer liquid but not available until mid March due to pricing difficulties.

    I can secure good quality gran urea so would a Bredal K85 or a Bogballe/KRM be able to easily get 24m?

    Plenty will say to 24m at max but then most will pay for what ever sh#tes cheapest rather than few pound extra for what they know to be reliable. If has little trouble with other blends should be ok. Well, unless you want to be guinea pig :pac:. Thought krm is bredal?

    Bredal are also marketed under KRM in the UK?
    It's been years since I've used Urea other than in liquid form.
    I suppose I should insist on Yara...

    Got quoted 410 during the week, not spreading any yet.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.
