In fact maintaining urea as urea for a longer period of time has significant potential benefits. As long as the N is maintained in the urea form, it is in fact far less vulnerable to atmospheric losses of N. Secondly, if the N remains in the urea form, the risk of damage to seedling germination and establishment is greatly diminished.
