The production of corn or soybeans for bio-based fuels and materials requires significant inputs of nitrogen (FN) and phosphorus fertilizer (FP) to increase grain yields. Approximately 50% of these nutrients are integrated into plant biomass. The remaining 50% is volatilized, leached into surface and groundwater, or transformed into gaseous species such as N2, NO, or N2O. Recent efforts to comp...

introduction: soil fertility management is a key factor in achieving sustainable agriculture. use of organic fertilizers is one of the methods that without environmental harmful effects with improvement of chemical and biological conditions increases soil fertility. nitroxin contains a collection of the best strains of nitrogen fixation bacteria of the genus azospirillum and azotobacter. these ...

Long-term research shows that phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer must be applied to optimize production of irrigated grain sorghum in western Kansas. In 2020, N alone increased yields 60 bu/a, whereas P together up 83 bu/a. Averaged across the past 10 years, fertilization 82 The application 160 lb/a (with P) produced maximum yield which is slightly less than 10-year average (2011–2020)....

in order to study the effect of mineral nutrient and salicylic acid on the fruit yield and yield components of coriander, a study was conducted in experimental field of gorgan university during 2007. the experiment was laid out in randomized block design with ten treatments (salicylic acid, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, zinc, iron, boron, molybdenum and control) in three replicati...

this study was carried out to determine nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents of rangeland plants using spectral reflectance value. the measurements were made in 1 m2 area of different parts of a rangeland. a portable spectroradiometer capable of measuring the wavelength range of 325-1,075 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum was used to collect spectral data. spectral measurements were ma...
