In this study, researchers from the ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute in India focused on efficient nitrogen (N) management and weed management in the Indo-Gangetic Plains using different means. The results of their study were published in the journal Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science.
Based on these results, the researchers concluded that the implementation of efficient N fertilizer and weed management in the early years of CA can improve agronomic yield, fertilizer savings, and soil organic carbon content.
