The world has changed revolutionary for the last few decades owing to the surge in
population. A consequence of this exponential increase in population is the high demand for …

Nitrogen (N) is the key nutrient for crop growth in most agricultural systems, but excessive N
fertilizer applications have led to very large ammonia (NH 3) and greenhouse gas (GHG) …

The increasing need for food to support the growing population has led to the widespread
use of synthetic fertilizers in the agricultural sector around the world. Most of these …

Agriculture significantly contributes to global soil nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions. Crop
rotation diversification and cover cropping are feasible agronomic strategies to reduce …

Increasing nitrogen (N) utilization and reducing N losses are a globally accepted strategy for
N fertilizer application. However, little information has been reported on the fate of N when …

Introduction Nitrogen fertilizer intake promotes soybean growth before the formation of
nodules, but excess nitrogen has an inhibitory effect on soybean nodulation. It is important to …

Global warming is expected to cause hotter, drier summers and more extreme weather
events including heat waves and droughts. A little understood aspect of this is its effects on …

Fertilized cropland is a significant source of ammonia (NH 3) emissions. Urea, the dominant
synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilizer, makes the largest contribution to NH 3 volatilization from …

In nitrate vulnerable zones (NVZs), site-specific techniques are needed to match N
availability with durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum Desf.) requirements …

Nitrogen (N) is an essential plant nutrient, therefore, N-deficient soils affect plant growth and
development. The excessive and unwise application of N fertilizers result in nutrient losses …
