Increasing the agricultural, environmental and economic benefits of farming based on suitable crop rotations and optimum fertilizer applications

2019-07-01

Abstract excerpt

A suitable crop rotation with optimum fertilizer application can balance the need for high crop yields with minimal environmental risk. This has not yet been achieved in China, and the Chinese Government now requires rotations that include a fallow period with the aim of improving soil quality. As a step towards achieving these aims, a 5-year field experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of different ra...
