Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Forage triticale absorbed 34.1–37.3% of applied fertilizer nitrogen.
- Observation Stems contained 35.9–39.6% of the nitrogen absorbed by triticale.
- Observation Leaves contained 60.4–64.1% of absorbed nitrogen.
- Observation The 0–100 cm soil layer retained 36.3–39.1% of applied fertilizer nitrogen.
- Observation Of soil-retained nitrogen, 81.8–91.3% was in the upper 0–40 cm.
- Observation Losses accounted for 24.6–26.8% of applied fertilizer nitrogen.
- Observation Dairy cows could utilize 28.1–31.3% of fertilizer nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen fertilizer from 0 to 225 kg N ha−1 raised forage biomass yield from 14.0 to 17.5 t ha−1.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen application rate did not significantly alter fertilizer nitrogen distribution through the soil–crop–cow system.
- Recommendation The authors recommend less than 225 kg N ha–1 for efficient nitrogen use and reduced environmental risk.
