Nitrogen Dynamics of Vermicompost Use in Sustainable Agriculture

Improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture

In this review, we present the recent developments and future prospects of improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in crops using various complementary approaches. These include conventional breeding and molecular genetics, in addition to alternative farming techniques based on no-till continuous cover cropping cultures and/or organic nitrogen (N) nutrition. Whatever the mode of N fertilization...

Factors Affecting the Use of Sustainable Agriculture in Iran's Potato Cultivars

Current research examines the economic, social, cultural, policy, educational and promotional factors in using sustainable agriculture operations. Research is an applied type and its method is correlation. The statistical population consisted of 102 members of Iran Potato Cultivars. Data were collected using a census method and a questionnaire was used. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was obta...

Multifunctional agriculture: Root and nitrogen dynamics in two alternative systems

The Corn Belt of the Midwestern United States is among the most productive grainproducing regions of the world. Yet the development of the Corn Belt has been accompanied by a suite of environmental concerns. Alternative systems have been proposed that remediate environmental quality while relying on fewer external inputs (e.g., synthetic nitrogen fertilizer) than dominate cropping systems of co...
