Nitrogen, Volume 6, Issue 3

This study aimed to assess the effect of organic amendment-based integrated nitrogen (N) application on major soil macronutrients, carbon (C) accumulation, crop productivity and N use efficiency (NUE) of different rice-based cropping patterns. This e...

Efficient nitrogen assimilation in crops remains a key challenge for sustainable agriculture. This study investigated the physiological effects of foliar application of iodine on Lactuca sativa L. cv. Butterhead, comparing two different chemical form...

The World Meteorological Organization/Global Atmosphere Watch (WMO/GAW) observation site of Lamezia Terme (code: LMT) in Calabria, Italy, has been measuring nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) (together referred to as NOx) for a decade; howe...

Biochar has been widely used in agriculture to improve soil quality, support soil remediation, enhance carbon sequestration, and mitigate climate change. Podzolic soils, such as those in Newfoundland, are typically acidic, low in organic matter, and...

Sustainable nitrogen (N) management in arable crops requires the real-time assessment of crop growth and N uptake, particularly in water-limited environments. In the present study, we conducted two large-scale field experiments with rainfed and irrig...

Foliar application with iron is a promising strategy for improving nitrogen nutrition and productivity in horticultural crops. In this study, the effect of the foliar application of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) compared to conventional iron sourc...

Circular agriculture reclaims nutrients from waste streams to reduce fertilizer imports, mitigate environmental impacts, and close material loops. This review evaluates the agronomic performance of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium products recover...

Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of NPK fertilizer, soil type (silty clay and sandy loam) with no history of pesticide application, temperature (28 and 40 °C), and maize residue on the half-life of atrazine herbici...

Nitrogen in all of its forms sustains Earth. In every known terrestrial and aquatic habitat, nitrogen controls microbial activity, plant productivity, trophic dynamics, and animal and human growth. This review has tried to show how nitrogen cycling i...

In southern China, the long-term irrational utilization of land resources has caused severe damage to the ecology and environment of the entire region. Serious issues such as soil degradation and water erosion have led to the decline of soil quality...
