متن کاملIs increasing inorganic fertilizer use for maize production in SSA a profitable proposition? Evidence from Nigeria
Inorganic fertilizer use across Sub-Saharan Africa is generally considered to be low. Yet, the notion that fertilizer use is too low is predicated on the assumption that it is profitable to use rates higher than currently observed. There is, however, limited empirical evidence to support this. Using a nationally representative panel dataset, this paper empirically estimates the profitability of...
متن کاملNutrient/fertilizer use efficiency: measurement, current situation and trends
Nutrient use efficiency (NUE) is a critically important concept in the evaluation of crop production systems. It can be greatly impacted by fertilizer management as well as by soiland plant-water management. The objective of nutrient use is to increase the overall performance of cropping systems by providing economically optimum nourishment to the crop while minimizing nutrient losses from the ...
متن کاملRecent Developments of Fertilizer Production and Use to Improve Nutrient Efficiency and Minimize Environmental Impacts
This chapter provides information on some recent developments of fertilizer production and use that improve nutrient efficiency and minimize environmental impact. The nutrients discussed are mainly N, P, and S. Improving N nutrient efficiency includes use of (1) controlled-release coated urea products, (2) slowrelease urea–aldehyde polymer products, (3) urea supergranules for deep placement, (4...
متن کاملSustainable Fertilizer Level for Winter Wheat in Different Rainfall Regions on the Loess Plateau of China
Higher fertilization on winter wheat increased the fluctuation of winter wheat yield in different rainfall years and impacted the sustainable development of winter wheat production on the Loess Plateau. Based on the long term field experimental data at Chagnwu Agricultural Station, this paper evaluated the EPIC model. And this paper also suggested a sustainable fertilizer level for winter wheat...
