How Tnue’s Controlled Release Membrane (CRM) nutrient use efficiency technology works

Maximise The Performance of Your Nitrogen

Tnue control release membrane (CRM) technology uses a flexible, membrane to encapsulate an N granule. The membrane shields the N from loss mechanisms, releasing it when the plant needs it most.

​​​

The membrane tailored for New Zealand conditions releases N based on the two requirements for plant growth: moisture and temperature. Moisture creates an N solution inside the membrane, and the solution moves through the membrane at a rate based on soil temperature. The movement and rate match the N demand of the growing plant. Tnue Smartfert® delivers superior performance with release control across temperature and moisture variations.
