Abstract

Nitrogen (N) is an essential input for food production, but at the same time N raises serious concerns for air, water and soil pollution due to its overuse. Research shows that N use is influenced by socio-economic factors beyond the environmental circumstances while heavily depending on the agronomic practices and technologies used. Micro-level studies based on real farm observations are still scarce in this context.
