Revolutionizing rice farming: Boosting yields and efficiency with site-specific nutrients.
The study looked at how managing nutrients in a specific way can affect the yield and nutrient uptake of rice grown in Vertisol soil. The researchers found that using site-specific nutrient management led to higher rice yields, increased uptake of essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, and improved efficiency in using these nutrients. This approach could help farmers grow more rice using fewer resources, ultimately benefiting both the environment and agricultural productivity.
