CAN 27 Fertilizer
Calcium Ammonium Nitrate
Granular Nitrogen Fertilizer with Nitrate and Ammonium Nitrogen
What Is CAN 27 Fertilizer?
CAN 27, or Calcium Ammonium Nitrate, is a granular nitrogen fertilizer containing both nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen. A typical CAN 27 grade contains 27% total nitrogen, with approximately half supplied as nitrate nitrogen and half as ammonium nitrogen.
Risso CAN 27 is designed primarily for soil application and can be incorporated into basal and top-dressing fertilizer programs for a wide range of agricultural crops.
Nitrogen Forms in CAN 27
Nitrate Nitrogen
Readily available for plant uptake and provides a fast-acting nitrogen source.
Ammonium Nitrogen
Interacts with soil exchange sites and gradually converts to nitrate.
Balanced Nitrogen Supply
Combines nitrate and ammonium nitrogen for balanced crop nutrition.
Key Benefits of CAN 27 Fertilizer
Dual Nitrogen Forms
Provides nitrate and ammonium nitrogen in one fertilizer.
Nitrogen & Calcium Nutrition
Provides nitrogen and calcium for balanced crop nutrition.
Readily Available Nitrogen
Provides readily available nitrate nitrogen for crop uptake.
Suitable for Top Dressing
Suitable for top dressing when crops require extra nitrogen.
Uniform Granules
Uniform granules support accurate spreading and distribution.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
CAN 27, or Calcium Ammonium Nitrate, is a granular nitrogen fertilizer containing 27% total nitrogen. The nitrogen is supplied in nitrate and ammonium forms.
CAN 27 refers to calcium ammonium nitrate with a nominal total nitrogen content of 27%.
CAN 27 contains 27% total nitrogen. The current Risso specification indicates approximately 13.5% nitrate nitrogen and 13.5% ammonium nitrogen. Please refer to the latest TDS for confirmed specifications.
CAN contains nitrate nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen. Nitrate nitrogen is readily available for plant uptake, while ammonium nitrogen interacts with soil exchange sites and undergoes natural transformation in the soil.
CAN provides nitrate and ammonium nitrogen and includes calcium according to its product grade, while urea provides a higher nitrogen concentration in urea form.
CAN 27 can be incorporated into fertilizer programs for cereals, oilseeds, field crops, vegetables, grassland and other agricultural crops where nitrogen fertilization is required. Application should be based on crop requirements and local agronomic recommendations.
CAN can be applied as a basal fertilizer, top dressing or split application depending on crop requirements, soil conditions and local fertilizer management practices.
Yes. Granular CAN is commonly used for top-dressing applications because it provides nitrate and ammonium nitrogen during crop growth.
Risso CAN 27 can be supplied in standard bags and jumbo bags, with packaging options such as 25 kg, 50 kg, 500 kg and 1000 kg subject to order requirements.
Yes. TDS, SDS, COA and applicable SGS or third-party inspection documents can be provided according to product and order requirements.
