Nitrogen Confusion Correction

A few weeks back I authored an article about nitrogen stabilizers available to our producers. In this article I made mention of Twin N as a products that mitigates volatilization and nitrate leaching. Please note that this information is not correct. Twin N is actually a microbial mix of nitrogen fixing bacteria. Sorry for this confusion, however this does bring us back to the fact as stated in the article to make sure you know what type of inhibitor you want, a urease or nitrification inhibitor. Similar to our herbicide and insecticide counterparts if we know the active ingredients and/or pathways we won't have to worry about specific brand names. Again I apologize for any confusion this has caused.
