Glauconitic siltstone is sedimentary rock used as raw material to produce a multinutrient fertilizer that can combine with urea to increase their agronomic efficiency. The purpose of this study was to evaluate glauconitic siltstone as additive to reduce nitrogen losses by ammonia volatilization in nitrogen fertilizers. The experiment used randomized block, in a portion subdivided over time, following a 6 x 8 factorial with four replications and treatments comprising glauconitic siltstone mixture at a dose of 100 kg N ha-1 (control, without the application of nitrogen; conventional urea – 45% N; commercial fertilizer registered with the trade name of Super N®; urea with addition of glauconitic siltstone: 9% N; 20 and 31% N) and the remaining portion divided in the collection time at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24 and 30 days after fertilizer application. The collection of the volatilized ammonia was made in a semi-opened free static chamber. The use of glauconitic siltstone associated with urea provided a reduction in loss by volatilization from 10 to 27% in relation to conventional urea. The treatments with application of urea with the urease inhibitor showed the lowest volatilization rate and delay in the volatilization peak, which occurred 17 days after fertilizer application. In addition to providing nutrients to the plants, glauconitic siltstone reduces ammonia losses.
