Implication of imposing fertilizer limitations on energy, agriculture, and land systems

Eva Sinha et al.

Summary: Since the 1950's, global fertilizer usage has increased by more than 800%, resulting in detrimental impacts to the environment. Studies have found that reducing global fertilizer usage may lead to decreased global cropland area, expanded forested area, and impacts on agricultural commodity price, production, and energy production.

Responsible plant nutrition: A new paradigm to support food system transformation

Achim Dobermann et al.

Summary: The coming 10-20 years are crucial for transitioning to a global food system that manages mineral nutrients in a holistic manner. Fertilizers play a significant role in ensuring food security and improving nutrition, and a new approach based on the circular economy is needed. Utilizing all available nutrient sources efficiently and tailoring solutions to different regions are key actions, along with sustainable nutrient roadmaps and innovative technologies.

The increasing global environmental consequences of a weakening US-China crop trade relationship

Guolin Yao et al.

Summary: The study found that China's tariffs on US agricultural products cause American farmers to shift to more pollution-causing crops, leading to increases in nitrogen and phosphorus pollution as well as water usage. If redirected to Brazil, while it could reduce nitrogen pollution and water stress, it may worsen phosphorus pollution and deforestation. Trade policies promoting crop production in the most efficient way in terms of nutrient and water use could help reduce pollution and water depletion. The potential environmental consequences of the US-China crop trade tensions are significant and could affect other countries, particularly Brazil and other South American countries, through international trade.

Quantification of global and national nitrogen budgets for crop production

Xin Zhang et al.

Summary: Input-output estimates of nitrogen on cropland are essential for improving nitrogen management and understanding the global nitrogen cycle. While most datasets show similar patterns, some annual estimates vary widely, leading to large ranges of uncertainty. The comparison of nitrogen budget terms by country reveals areas for improvement.
