Nitrogen Use Efficiency

Get the latest Nitrogen Use Efficiency news, research and developments covering how farmers, researchers and the fertilizer industry are improving the uptake and utilization of nitrogen by crops while reducing nutrient losses. Coverage includes fertilizer management, crop nutrition, soil health, nitrogen recovery, emissions and technologies designed to improve fertilizer performance.

Developments covered under this tag include precision nitrogen application, split fertilization, controlled-release and enhanced-efficiency fertilizers, nitrification and urease inhibitors, biological nitrogen management, fertigation and site-specific nutrient management. Research also examines crop varieties with improved nitrogen uptake and assimilation, as well as the role of genetics, biotechnology, sensors, remote sensing and data-driven agriculture in matching nitrogen supply with crop demand.

Find news on nitrogen fertilizer efficiency, crop nutrition research, new fertilizer technologies, field trials, government policies, sustainability initiatives and innovations aimed at reducing nitrogen losses through leaching, runoff, volatilization and denitrification. Recent research is also examining regional differences in nitrogen efficiency and the influence of climate, soil and crop conditions, while Indian agricultural policy continues to focus on improving nutrient-use efficiency and promoting more balanced fertilizer use.
