Increase Yield
Better yield starts with how and when you apply nitrogen.
Explore SolutionProtein matters. Not just for crop quality, but for contract bonuses. Whether you’re chasing 13% for Group 1 wheat or building grain value across the board, boosting protein starts with the right nitrogen, applied at the right time.
Achieving yield is only part of the equation – meeting milling wheat protein specifications requires late-season nitrogen delivered efficiently. Nitrasol’s foliar products and methylated urea (M-35) fertilisers support effective nitrogen uptake, helping maximise your crop’s quality and income potential.
Nitrasol solves these problems:
Nitrasol’s liquid fertiliser system is designed to give growers greater control over how nitrogen is delivered through the season. From products that support early biomass and protein potential, to foliar nutrition and protected late applications with AdvaNShield®, our system helps crops absorb nutrients more efficiently during key growth stages.
We have a two step approach to boosting protein and maximising the milling premiums of your wheat crop. All Nitrasol products are clean, scorch-free and designed for sprayer-based systems, meaning you can apply them accurately when protein response is highest.
Protein response isn’t just about total nitrogen, it depends on the plant’s ability to convert N into protein. Sulphur is essential to that process, and UK soils are increasingly deficient due to reduced atmospheric S.
The solution: Use N+S liquid grades in your main splits to build biomass and protein potential early.
Sulphur deficiency causes yellowing even when nitrogen is sufficient
Limits grain development, lowering protein content and final yield
Poor sulphur supply reduces how effectively crops use applied nitrogen
The final 30–50kg N/ha often determines grain protein, but only when applied at a time the crop can actually use it. Foliar solutions like NitraPro enable nitrogen to be absorbed directly through the leaf, bypassing dry soil conditions and ensuring uptake just before and during grain fill.
This approach allows for safe late applications from flag leaf onwards, with formulations designed to minimise scorch, maintain compatibility with tank mixes and T3 sprays, and integrate easily into a single-pass system.
Late nitrogen is often where growers see the biggest losses. Using AdvaNShield® protected UAN lowers nitrogen loss and enables confident full-season nutrition.
Designed to maximise nitrogen efficiency while keeping applications simple, low-loss, and predictable.
“Switching to foliar N at flag leaf made the difference. We moved from 11.9% to 13.3% and hit the spec without pushing rates earlier.”

No two yield strategies are the same. We consider your soil, region, and cropping plan to match the right product and service.
