SylLock™ – Crop Nitrogen Management System

Product Details

Advanced Nitrogen Stabilization for Maximum Efficiency – SylLock™ is Sylvite’s premium line of nitrogen stabilizers, designed to protect your fertilizer investment by reducing nitrogen loss through volatilization, leaching, and denitrification. By keeping nitrogen in the soil longer, SylLock™ products ensure greater nutrient availability for plants, improved efficiency, and higher yield potential, all while supporting environmental stewardship.

With multiple formulations tailored to different application methods, SylLock™ offers cost-effective, easy-to-use solutions to maximize nitrogen retention and optimize plant uptake, ensuring your fertilizer dollars go further.

Benefits

SylLock™ stabilizers reduce nitrogen loss and improve nutrient efficiency, resulting in higher yields, better soil health, and more sustainable farming practices. Key benefits include:

Minimizes Nitrogen Loss: Reduces volatilization, leaching, and denitrification to keep more nitrogen available for crops.
Maximizes Efficiency: Ensures that plants absorb more of the applied nitrogen, improving crop health and yield potential.
Flexible Application: Suitable for all crops, soils, and seasons, with multiple formulations available.
Cost-Effective Per Acre: Offers economical protection with low-odor formulations for easy application and incorporation.
Supports Environmental Responsibility: Reduces ammonia emissions and aligns with 4R Nutrient Stewardship principles.

SylLock™ Down

Prevent Nitrogen Leaching & Improve Nutrient Retention – SylLockDown™ contains dicyandiamide (DCD), a highly effective nitrification inhibitor that slows the conversion of ammonium to nitrate, reducing nitrogen leaching and denitrification. This ensures nutrients remain available longer, allowing plants to absorb more nitrogen for stronger, healthier growth.

Key Benefits

Reduces Leaching Risk: Inhibits nitrification to keep nitrogen in the root zone longer.
Improves Nitrogen Use Efficiency: Maintains ammonium form of N during critical uptake windows.
Compatible & Easy to Use: Water-clear liquid mixes easily with UAN and irrigation water.
Environmentally Responsible: Reduces nitrate movement into water tables and supports sustainability goals.
No Impact on Soil Biology: Doesn’t interfere with beneficial soil enzymes or microbial activity.
Visible Coverage: Includes blue dye to help monitor uniform application and agitation.

SylLock™ Up

Protect Against Volatilization for Maximum Nitrogen Retention – SylLockUp™ contains N-(N-Butyl) Thiophosphoric Triamide (NBPT), a proven urease inhibitor that prevents nitrogen loss through volatilization. By slowing the conversion of urea to ammonia, it ensures more nitrogen stays in the soil, giving crops more time to absorb essential nutrients for optimal growth.

Key Benefits

Reduces Ammonia Loss: Inhibits urease activity to prevent conversion of urea to ammonia gas.
Improves Nitrogen Efficiency: Extends the window for plant uptake after surface application.
Yield Boosting Results: Proven to increase yields by up to 12% compared to untreated urea.
Flexible & Easy to Apply: Works with urea and UAN; adaptable for in-field timing and incorporation.
Safe & Stable: NBPT is a non-toxic, stable compound effective at low concentrations.
Simple Application: Yellow dye makes for easy visual confirmation of uniform coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is SylLock™ and how does it work?

SylLock™ is Sylvite’s line of nitrogen stabilizers, designed to reduce nitrogen loss from volatilization, leaching, and denitrification. By keeping more nitrogen in the soil, it ensures better nutrient availability for crops, improving efficiency and yield potential.

Which SylLock™ product is right for my farm?

SylLock™ comes in three formulations, each targeting a specific type of nitrogen loss. SylLockUp™ inhibits volatilization, keeping nitrogen from escaping into the air. SylLockDown™ prevents leaching and denitrification, helping nitrogen stay in the root zone for longer. SylLockPlus™ combines both technologies for dual-action protection, offering the most comprehensive solution. A Sylvite representative can help determine which option best fits your needs.

How does SylLock™ improve fertilizer efficiency?

By keeping nitrogen in the root zone for longer, SylLock™ ensures plants absorb more of the applied fertilizer, reducing nutrient waste and input costs while supporting higher yields.

Is SylLock™ environmentally friendly?

Yes! SylLock™ supports sustainable farming by reducing ammonia emissions and nitrogen runoff, aligning with 4R Nutrient Stewardship principles to protect soil health and water quality.
