Decomposition rate of organic fertilizers: effect on yield, nitrogen availability and nitrogen stock in the soil [PDF]
The nitrogen of organic fertilizers does not fully mineralize within a season, and hence will partly become available in later years. This effect is taken into account for the first year but generally not in later fertilizer applications.

Estimation of N2O emission factors for soils depending on environmental conditions and crop management [PDF]
Nitrous oxide (N2O) contributes 8% to anthropogenic global warming, of which about one third are direct emissions of agricultural soils. These N2O emissions are often estimated using the default IPCC 2006 emission factor of 1% of the amount of N applied ...

Accumulation and export of micronutrients in potato fertilized with organic-mineral fertilizer
The response of potato plants to organo-mineral fertilization is still poorly understood. Hence, the aim of this study was to evaluate absorption and extraction of micronutrients by Agata potato cultivar in winter crop. The experiment was conducted in the municipality of Cristalina, Goiás state, Brazil, from May 26 to August 29 of 2012.

Simultaneous ammonium and phosphate recovery and stabilization from urban sewage sludge anaerobic digestates using reactive sorbents [PDF]
The use of low-cost inorganic sorbents as a new sustainable strategy to enhance the valorization of nutrients (N-P-K), from the urban water cycle (e.g., side streams from sewage sludge anaerobic digestion), in agriculture applications is presented.

The comparative analysis of the mineral nitrogen fertilizers
Abstract According to the results of physical and chemical modeling, the chemical form of nitrogen fertilizers has a significant effect on the thermodynamic parameters of systems with their application. The chemical activity of nitrogen in sandy soils is higher than in clay soils, and decreases in the series: potassium nitrate - ammonium

Development of mineral fertilization complex mechanization
Abstract The intensification of agriculture, its saturation with heavy machines, and the growth in the energy saturation of tractors put forward new tasks that cannot be solved without the development of theoretical and applied research in the field of soil mechanics. It became necessary to study the mechanical processes occurring in the
