NITROGEN MANAGEMENT PRACTICES TO INCREASE NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY AND REDUCE GASEOUS LOSSES IN MAIZE
Keywords:
carbon footprint, fertilizer, nitrogen handling, cornAbstract
The objectives of this work were to evaluate the effect of dose fractionation combined with different N sources [Urea, Urea-Limus (urease activity inhibitor), Urea-DMPP (nitrification inhibitor) and CAN (calcium ammonium nitrate)] under irrigated and rainfed conditions on: a) N losses by volatilization, b) N2O emission, c) grain yield, d) EUN and e) fertilizer carbon footprint.
