One-time basal application of urea blended with controlled-release urea increases cotton yield and nitrogen use efficiency by enhancing mid- to late-season soil mineral nitrogen

Abstract Background The one-time combined application of conventional urea (U) with controlled-release urea (CRU), manure (M), or nitrification inhibitors (NIs) offers sustainable nitrogen (N) management options. However, their comparative performance under equivalent N inputs re...
