Scientists propose strategy for increasing rice yield while reducing fertilizer use
Scientists propose strategy for increasing rice yield while reducing fertilizer use- Researchers from the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences (RCEES) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a sustainable technology to selectively reduce nitrate to ammonium. This innovation delivers three benefits: It increases rice yield, reduces fertilizer usage, and mitigates nitrate pollution in groundwater. The findings were recently published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
