NPK fertiliser, YaraMila Compound fertilisers

Compound fertilisers with each nutrient contained in every granule or prill

YaraMila compound fertilisers contain combinations of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and in most cases sulphur too – the most essential plant nutrients – designed to meet specific crop requirements to maximize crop yield and quality.

YaraMila: fertiliser with long-lasting phosphorus supply

Why choose YaraMila compound fertiliser ?

Flexible nutrient combinations

No nutrient segregation - All nutrients are contained in every prill or granule so there can be no risk of nutrient segregation during shipping, handling or spreading
Even nutrient application - All nutrients are applied evenly to the whole crop avoiding uneven application and yield losses
Range of nutrient ratios - A wide range of N:P:K + S ratios and availability of formulas with secondary and micronutrients ensure there is a YaraMila fertilisers for all crop situations
Sulphur included - Almost all formulations now include sulphur ensuring balanced fertilisation without the need for an additional sulphur fertiliser.
Additional nutrients - ManyYaraMila fertilisers also contain micronutrients essential for specific crops. These may include boron, iron, manganese, molybdenum, zinc and/or selenium

Efficient nutrient sources

Balanced nitrogen source - Nitrogen is present at 40-45% as nitrate-N and 55-60% as ammonium-N, depending on the production process and the specific formula.
Fast nitrogen uptake - High nitrate-N content ensures a quick response to nitrogen, while the ammonium-N is important to keep a sustained delivery of nitrogen.
Available phosphate - Phosphorus is fully plant available, as water soluble ortho- and polyphosphates and ammonium citrate soluble di-calcium phosphate. The combination of different forms give greater and a longer lasting availability of phosphorus to crops
Alternative potassium sources - Potassium is included as MOP (Muriate of Potash - potassium chloride) or SOP (Sulphate of Potash -potassium sulphate). Products based on SOP are specially for crops with low chloride tolerance whilst MOP based products are suitable for all other crops

How is quality achieved?

How Yara reaches such high quality of compound fertilisers though technology, production processes and innovation.

Fertiliser technology

Yara fertilisers incorporate technologies to preserve the quality of the products. These include coating systems and anti-caking agents. It's also important to prevent dust, thermocycling and condensation.

Fertiliser storage

Correct storage of fertiliser is important to ensure safety. Where possible, fertilisers should be stored in a closed, secure storage place to protect the product from the weather and reduce the risk of theft.

What is behind a name?

YaraMila is the global brand name for Yara’s premium NPK range of products. Mila" is derived from the Old Norse word "mikla", meaning success. Our company name Yara, was created in 2004 when Hydro was listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and the fertiliser division of the company was renamed from Hydro Agri to Yara International ASA I thought it was relevant to explain the YaraMila name as it is one of the global brand names for Yara, which was created in 2004. However we still get customers and resellers asking for Hydro Complex, which is YaraMila Complex. YaraMila is our global brand name for premium NPK range of products but there is more than just products with different analysis of N, P, K, S and other secondary and micronutrients.

Growers understand they need to optimise many factors in the crop production cycle to achieve the best outcome. Optimising water use efficiency is generally linked to nutrient use efficiency as well (NUE). To optimise NUE, the right product/source needs to be applied at the right rate, right time and in the right place/position.
