Published online:

Crop residue integration reduced seasonal N losses by 21% without compromising yields.

Topologically important bacterial taxa & fungal diversity predicted N losses at seedling, silking & harvesting stages.

3rd paper of the PhD research just Accepted in Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment.

We explored how stage-specific restructuring of soil micro-food web under integrated crop residue management reduces N losses throughout maize season.

Will share the link soon when available online.

Alhamdulillah! What a great weekend after ages.

1st PhD paper was accepted Yesterday in Plants journal.

2nd one just accepted now in Journal of Environmental Management.

And now fingers crossed for 3rd one, revised in Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment.

We shows that: applying more than 130 kg/ha of N on winter wheat doesn’t boost yield or N use efficiency. Why overapply? Save costs, protect the environment.
