Leaching Loss of Nutrients: A Quantification Approach and Management in Acidic Alfisols of Eastern India
摘要
Quantified leaching loss of nutrient in experimental field using low-cost non-weighing lysimeter. The inorganic application of fertilizer nutrient increased the leaching loss of nutrients. The organic and integrated nutrient management (INM) treatments minimized the leaching loss of Nitrate-N by 37–41 and 18–26%, respectively. The organic and INM emerged as a sustainable system to prevent nutrient leaching and groundwater pollution.
