Anything that creates as much free hydrogen in the soil as using anhydrous is not good for soil life. The one I never understand is people that need lime and still apply. Anhydrous. You're just costing yourself extra money on lime.

That combined with Iowa and anhydrous being the leading cause of nitrogen entering the Mississippi River will get along farmers regulatory hurdles sooner than later


Somewhat misleading - NH3 no doubt would be a major player in nitrate water pollution. Of course it is because it’s the leading source of N on farms.
But it’s actually more stable than urea or uan. Pollution is related to application rates and especially timing. Fall applied has more time to convert to nitrate.
