Can this be buried without conduit?

Yes. UF-B is listed for direct burial, so it can go straight into the trench. Check local code for required burial depth and any protection where it comes above ground.

What size circuit does 12/2 UF-B support?

The 12-gauge conductors suit 20A circuits. Keep the run length in mind, since voltage drop grows on long buried runs.

How does it differ from 12/2 NM-B?

NM-B is for dry indoor locations only. UF-B has a jacket rated for wet and underground use and sunlight exposure, but it is stiffer.

Does it include a ground wire?

Yes. It has two insulated conductors plus a bare ground, so it wires a standard grounded circuit.

Can it be used for a subpanel feeder?

It can feed a small subpanel on a 20A circuit. Larger loads need bigger conductors, so size the cable to the load and the breaker.
