Nitrogen management in grasslands and forage-based production systems – Role of biological nitrification inhibition (BNI)
Nitrogen (N), the most critical and essential nutrient for plant growth, largely determines the productivity in both extensive
and
intensive grassland systems. Nitrification and denitrification processes in the soil are ...
Biological Implications in Cassava for the Production of Amylose-Free Starch - Impact on Root Yield and Related Traits
Cassava (Manihot esculenta, Crantz) is an important food security crop, but it is
becoming an important raw material for different industrial applications. Cassava is
the second most important source of starch worldwide. ...
What happens to earthworm casts in the soil? A field study of carbon and nitrogen dynamics in Neotropical savannahs
In the Oxisols of the eastern plains of Colombia, the large native anecic earthworm Martiodrilus sp. is an abundant ecosystem engineer producing long-lasting casts and burrows. Casts deposited in the soil by this species ...
A paradigm shift towards low-nitrifying production systems: the role of biological nitrification inhibition (BNI)
BACKGROUND:
Agriculture is the single largest geo-engineering initiative that humans have initiated on planet Earth, largely through the introduction of unprecedented amounts of reactive nitrogen (N) into ecosystems. A ...
