Evaluation of Enhanced Nitrogen-use Efficiency Products

Currently, there has been a growing interest in using enhanced Nitrogen (N)-use efficiency (NUE) products in western Canada.

IPNI-2016-CAN-AB37

Overall Objectives: Currently, there has been a growing interest in using enhanced Nitrogen (N)-use efficiency (NUE) products in western Canada. NUE products are marketed to reduce N losses and/or to better synchronize N supply with crop demand, which can potentially increase crop yield under certain growing conditions and management practices in Alberta.

Interpretive Summary

2017

This project first consisted of conducting a comprehensive literature review on enhanced efficiency nitrogen (N) fertilizer products from research conducted in western Canada. An impressive data set has been gathered from cooperating researchers and is being analyzed for an economic cost-benefit analysis. Work on the literature review progressed well in 2017.

2016

The project consists of first conducting a comprehensive literature review on enhanced-efficiency nitrogen (N) fertilizer products for research conducted in western Canada. The data will then be analyzed for an economic cost-benefit-analysis. Work on the literature review has progressed well, but much of the raw research data is still arriving and will be added to the project database.
