Nitrogen fertilization. A review of the risks associated with the inefficiency of its use and policy responses
Nitrogen (N) is a key input to food production. Nearly half of N fertilizer input is not used by
crops and is lost into the environment via emission of gases or by polluting water bodies. It is …
