+1        Urea doesn’t even spread that evenly (with a spinner cart) when you’re not spreading on standing corn that shortens up your height from the spinner to the crop canopy.  

Then for me theres the other issues of spreading 40’-50’-60’ wide with a rented cart vs 90’ wide with a sprayer I own.     That’s why we use liquid.   And we buy it ahead of time when all N sources get priced similarly.   

But we have used urea in the past and it does work fine.   The leaf burn is just cosmetic.
