Optimize Yield Results
Across a three-year study in the U.S. Corn Belt, CENTURO treated ammonia increased corn yield by an average of 6 bu/A in both fall and spring applications compared to untreated anhydrous.2
CENTURO™ Nitrogen Stabilizer
Featuring the patented active ingredient Pronitridine, CENTURO™ nitrogen stabilizer offers highly-effective below-ground protection against leaching and denitrification. CENTURO is noncorrosive to the metals used in anhydrous ammonia and UAN equipment, making it easy to handle and gentle on equipment — reducing downtime associated with equipment damage.

Features & Benefits
Proven Efficiency
CENTURO nitrogen stabilizer has helped growers meet their nutrient management, nitrogen efficiency and yield goals, and has quickly become a proven nitrification inhibitor for anhydrous ammonia and UAN. Its noncorrosive formula is gentle on equipment and continues to be an easy-to-handle solution.
3X Longer ProtectionCENTURO is proven to keep applied nitrogen in the ammonium form three times longer than without an inhibitor.1
Subzero Freeze PointCENTURO boasts a freeze point of -23° C (-9° F) and can be stored for two years without degrading.
Flexible Storage OptionsCENTURO is highly stable and noncorrosive, eliminating the need for explosion-proof equipment or stainless-steel storage
Improved Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE)In third-party research studies conducted in the U.S. from 2016 and 2017, CENTURO improved nitrogen use efficiency in anhydrous ammonia by up to 25 percent.2Both CENTURO treated ammonia and untreated ammonia applied at 100% of the nitrogen rate or an average application rate of 200 lbs/acre.
Will Not Swell O-RingsCENTURO can remain in pumps over time without affecting their operation and washing or rinsing equipment between use is not necessary. This reduces your overall downtime by eliminating time spent maintaining and repairing equipment.
Research
CENTURO Boosts Yields
Released for use in the United States in 2018, CENTURO is proving that by keeping more nitrogen available for plant uptake, you can improve yields. Plus, when you protect your fall-applied anhydrous with CENTURO, you free up your time in the spring to attend to the rest of your operation — without sacrificing nutrient availability
