Global mean nitrogen recovery efficiency in croplands can be enhanced by optimal nutrient, crop and soil management practices

Abstract An increase in nitrogen (N) recovery efficiency, also denoted as N use efficiency (NUEr), is crucial to reconcile food production and environmental health. This study assessed the effects of nutrient, crop and soil management on NUEr accounting for its dependency on site conditions, includi...
