The demand for nitrogen (N) for crop production increased rapidly from the middle of the
twentieth century and is predicted to at least double by 2050 to satisfy the on-going …

Agriculture is in crisis. Soil health is collapsing. Biodiversity faces the sixth mass extinction.

Tomorrow's agriculture, challenged by increasing global demand for food, scarcity of arable
lands, and resources alongside multiple environment pressures, needs to be managed …

In agroecosystems, nitrogen is one of the major nutrients limiting plant growth. To meet the
increased nitrogen demand in agriculture, synthetic fertilizers have been used extensively in …

Nitrogen is abundant in the atmosphere but is generally the most limiting nutrient for plants.
The inability of many crop plants, such as cereals, to directly utilize freely available …

The nitrogen (N)-use efficiency of agricultural plants is notoriously poor. Globally, about 50%
