Little information exists on the potential for N fertilizer application to corn ( L.) to affect NO emissions during subsequent unfertilized crops in a rotation. To determine if N fertilizer application to corn affects NO emissions during subsequent crops in rotation, we measured NO emissions for 3 yr (2011-2013) in an Iowa, corn-soybean [ (L.) Merr.] rotation with three N fertilizer rates appli...

The inherent problems associated with inorganic fertilizer such as scarcity and high cost informed the invention of cocoa pod husk based organic fertilizer. The impact of the fertilizer on cocoa output is hereby investigated in this study. The study was conducted in Cross-River State, Nigeria and purposive random sampling technique was used to select fifty cocoa farmers including the user and n...

in order to investigate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer levels and intercropping ratios on yield and other morphological traits of two crops, field experiments were conducted during two years (2010-2011) in the research field of the school of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran. the study was carried out in a factorial experiment laid out based on a completely randomized block desig...

Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and development; however, due to environmental pollution, high nitrate concentrations accumulate in the edible parts of these leafy vegetables, particularly if excessive nitrogen fertilizer has been applied. Consuming these crops can harm human health; thus, developing a suitable strategy for the agricultural application of nitrogen fertilizer i...

C urrently recommended N management in North Carolina and elsewhere in the humid southeastern USA is based on realistic yield expectations (RYE). In North Carolina, N recommendations based on RYE are made from a database of RYE by soil map unit or based on a grower's documented historic yields (the average of the best three yields during a 5-yr period; North Carolina Nutrient Management Workgro...
