4R nitrogen management produced more yield and benefit on rice in Ningxia, China
Research focused on effect of N recommendation by Nutrient Expert integrated with CRU and placement on rice yield and benefit as well as N use efficiency.
IPNI-2016-CHN-NX01
Imbalanced use of nitrogen (N) in rice production is common in the northwestern province Ningxia, leading to possibilities of N losses to the environment. The objective of this project was to use the Nutrient Expert® (NE) tool to make site-specific fertilizer recommendations for rice, based on the 4R Nutrient Stewardship Principles, to help improve N use efficiency and farmers' income.
