Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect NBPT increased winter wheat grain yield by 1.2%–14% under irrigated environments relative to the other N sources.
- Intervention effect NBPT increased winter wheat grain yield by 2.8%–4% under rain-fed environments relative to the other N sources, except untreated urea.
- Intervention effect NBPT increased total N uptake of winter wheat by between 0% and 12% relative to the other N sources.
- Intervention effect Liquid enhanced efficiency fertilizers produced winter wheat grain protein content greater than 11%, except Nitrapyrin under irrigated environments.
- Intervention effect N source did not change greenhouse gas emissions of winter wheat under rain-fed conditions in three site-years.
