Agriculture and the nitrogen cycle : assessing the impacts of fertilizer use on food production and the environment /
Annotation "Agriculture an dthe Nitrogen Cycle provides a unique, up-to-date assessment of the role of nitrogen fertilizer in the nitrogen cycle. In it, the authors emphasize the need to maintain food and fiber production while minimizing environmental impacts where fertilizer is abundant, and...
