coated urea
Explanation:
Coated urea fertilizers are a group of controlled release fertilizers consisting of prills of urea coated in less-soluble chemicals such as sulfur, polymers, other products ... The coatings release the urea either when penetrated by water, as with sulfur, or when broken down, as with polymers.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coated_urea

p.2 Probably the best known of these
products is sulfur-coated urea. A sulfur coating is applied to
urea granules and urea dissolves/diffuses through imperfections
in the coating..
Recent advancements in polymer (plastic) technology have
created a whole new type of controlled release fertilizer, the
most common of which is polymer-coated urea (PCU).
