fertiliser Modelling
The industrialization of agriculture has led to an increasing dependence on non-locally sourced agricultural inputs. Hence, shocks in the availability of agricultural inputs can be devastating to food crop...
In this paper, we establish the link between crop productivity, crop market participation and agricultural technology use among smallholder farmers. We take advantage of the latest...
Harvested food carries a fraction of the nitrogen applied through fertilization; the remainder is typically lost into the environment, impairing planetary sustainability. Using a global agriculture model that integrates...
This paper combines panel data from nationally representative household-level surveys in Nigeria with long-term satellite-based spatial data on temperature and precipitation using geo-referenced information related to households...

Agricultural yields in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are far below their potential.
We use a novel combination of crop modeling and survey data...
In the Biodiversity Strategy to 2030, the Farm to Fork Strategy and the Zero Pollution Action Plan the European Union has set an ambitious and ground-breaking goal to reduce by 50% nutrient...
China’s gains in food production over the past four decades have been associated with substantial agricultural nitrogen losses, which contribute to air and water pollution...

This study assessed impact of projected climate change on maize and explored management options.
Anthesis date, maturity date, grain and aboveground biomass yields...
Phosphorus (P) is a non-renewable geological macronutrient that plays an essential role in food security. Ecosystem process-based models are a powerful tool to depict the P cycle, investigate...
