STABI MIX
Supporting consistency and efficiency in liquid-urea programmes
Stabi Mix is a longstanding DCT product designed for farmers who mix and apply their own liquid-urea programmes.
It is added during the preparation of a liquid-urea mix and is designed to support nitrogen efficiency, application consistency and pasture performance within the wider farm programme.
Stabi Mix continues to be used by established DCT customers and is available through DCT and participating resellers.
Where Stabi Mix fits
Stabi Mix may be suitable if you:
Prepare and apply liquid urea on farm
Already use Stabi Mix as part of your pasture programme
Purchase Stabi Mix through a DCT reseller
Want a dedicated additive for an established liquid-urea programme
Have equipment suitable for mixing and applying liquid urea
Because farming systems and nitrogen programmes differ, suitability should be confirmed with DCT or your DCT reseller before first use.
What Stabi Mix is designed to support
When used as part of a correctly managed liquid-urea programme, Stabi Mix is designed to support:
Nitrogen efficiency within the wider farm programme
Greater consistency across urea applications
Straightforward integration with existing liquid-urea practices
Pasture performance during active growth
Results will depend on soil conditions, weather, pasture demand, nitrogen rate, application timing and the wider farm-management programme.
How to use Stabi Mix
Stabi Mix is designed to be mixed with urea before application.
Typical application rate: 15 litres per hectare
The appropriate urea rate, water volume, mixing sequence and timing will depend on the individual farming system and application equipment.
Follow the programme and mixing instructions supplied by DCT or your DCT reseller.
Compatibility
Stabi Mix was developed for use in liquid-urea programmes.
Do not assume compatibility with other fertilisers, agricultural chemicals or biological products. Obtain advice from DCT or your DCT reseller before introducing another product into the mixture.
Where appropriate, perform a jar test before preparing a full tank mix. A jar test can identify obvious physical incompatibility, but it does not establish chemical compatibility, plant safety or product efficacy.
Maintain appropriate agitation during mixing and application.
Frequently asked questions
Is Stabi Mix still available?
Yes. Stabi Mix continues to be used by DCT customers and is available directly through DCT and participating resellers.
Is Stabi Mix a urease inhibitor or nitrification inhibitor?
No. Stabi Mix is not presented as a registered urease inhibitor or nitrification inhibitor. It is a liquid-urea programme additive designed to support nitrogen efficiency and consistency within the wider farming system.
Can Stabi Mix be used without urea?
Stabi Mix was developed for use with liquid urea. If urea is not being applied, another DCT product is likely to be more suitable.
Is Stabi Mix only for dairy farms?
Stabi Mix has predominantly been used in dairy-pasture programmes. Its suitability depends on the farming system, application method and intended programme rather than farm type alone.
Does Stabi Mix reduce nitrogen loss?
DCT does not claim a fixed reduction in nitrogen loss from Stabi Mix or present it as a registered nitrogen inhibitor. It is designed to support nitrogen efficiency and application consistency as part of a correctly managed liquid-urea programme.
What application rate should I use?
The typical Stabi Mix rate is 15 litres per hectare. Contact DCT or your DCT reseller to confirm the appropriate urea rate, dilution, timing and mixing procedure for your system.
Which DCT liquid-urea product is right for me?
Stabi Mix is a dedicated programme additive used by customers with established liquid-urea practices.
Optimise iO is a broader DCT solution designed to be combined with urea or incorporated into an existing fertiliser programme.
The best choice will depend on your current programme, equipment and farm-performance goals.
