The nitrogen dilemma: Toward a novel fertilization management framework for reconciling productivity and diversity in grasslands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Nitrogen fertilization raises grassland productivity but steadily undermines plant diversity. Instead of applying the same rate everywhere every year, the PRISM framework is designed to rotate high‐ and low‐nitrogen paddocks across the farm over time. This spatiotemporal cycling aims to maintain farm‐scale productivity while creating periodic windows ...
