The effect of sodium nitrate or urea applied with or without a nitrification inhibitor on yields, N uptake and efficiency of N fertilizer was compared in pot-grown sugarbeet and sugarcane plants. Max. yields and N uptake were achieved with sodium nitrate + inhibitor in sugarbeet and urea + inhibitor in sugarcane. N fertilizer efficiency followed a similar trend.
