Limitations of Improved Nitrogen Management to Reduce Nitrate Leaching and Increase Use Efficiency
The primary mode of nitrogen (N) loss from tile-drained row-cropped land is generally nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N) leaching. Although cropping, tillage, and N management practices can be altered to reduce the amount of leaching, there are limits as to how much can be done. Data are given to illustrate t...
