Following nutrient management guidelines can help to reduce nitrous oxide emissions

Agriculture is the largest source of nitrous oxide (N2O), a potent greenhouse gas, with a majority produced in soils receiving fertilizer and manure. The largest emissions of N2O generally come from wet soils. Nutrient management guidelines have largely been developed to protect water quality, but practices that improve nitrogen (N) use efficiency by crops also read more Following nutrient management guidelines can help to reduce nitrous oxide emissions
