Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Pea and lentil had similar %Ndfa across locations, seasons and cultural practices, averaging 70%Ndfa.
- Observation Dinitrogen fixation in the spring-sown chickpea crop was higher in France (44%Ndfa).
- Observation Dinitrogen fixation in the winter chickpea crop was higher in Syria (80%).
- Observation Faba bean obtained 9O%Ndfa in France.
- Observation Faba bean obtained only 69%Ndfa in Syria.
- Observation Large-seeded faba bean fixed more N (74%Ndfa) than small-seeded faba bean (64%) in Syria.
- Observation The large-seeded faba bean type did not fix more N than the small-seeded type in France.
- Observation The calculated N balance where only grain was removed ranged from a 44 kg N/ha net gain to a 44 kg N/ha loss.
- Observation Where both seed and straw were removed, nearly all N balance calculations were negative, with loss of up to 70 kg N/ha from soil.
