New Additive is
Chemical Lock on Anhydrous Ammonia

Researchers at Iowa State University have come up with a way to deter theft of anhydrous ammonia for making Meth.  They have found that anhydrous ammonia that has calcium nitrate added to it drops the yield of Meth from a cook down to 2% or less. Farmers are reassured that the addition of calcium nitrate will not harm the environment, nurse tanks or application equipment.  In fact, calcium nitrate is another type of fertilizer.

The research took six years and was federally funded. 

Use of the new inhibitor will be on a voluntary basis for fertilizer dealers in Iowa beginning this fall. Ag retailers who participate will receive a formula for injecting calcium nitrate into anhydrous ammonia, as well as signs from the Agribusiness Association of Iowa to put on the nurse tanks. The signs say STOP METH.
