Abstract

The invention relates to a homogeneous, solid, particulate, urea ammonium sulphate-based composition comprising urea ammonium sulphate and a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, wherein the urea ammonium sulphate-based composition is further characterized in that one or more of the following measures applies: a) it comprises 5 weight % or less, relative to the total weight of the composition, of one or more alkaline or alkaline-forming inorganic or organic compounds that is able to interact with ammonium sulphate; b) the urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide is in a solid particulate form; c) an anticaking and/or moisture repellent coating is applied onto the urea ammonium sulphate particulate material. The composition according to the invention has improved properties for reducing ammonia loss by urease activity in the soil and is in particular suitable as a fertilizer. The invention further relates to a method for the manufacture of a homogeneous, solid, particulate urea ammonium sulphate-based composition comprising urea, ammonium sulphate and a urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide, in particular N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT), as well as to a composition of kit of parts comprising: a) one or more alkaline or alkaline-forming inorganic compounds that is able to interact with ammonium sulphate; b) the urease inhibitor of the type phosphoric triamide in solid particulate or liquid form, preferably wherein the urease inhibitor is N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric triamide (nBTPT); c) optionally, one or more anticaking and/or moisture repellent compounds.
