Here is a statement that I read on the internet recently, "...while fertilizers make crops grow better and faster, half of the fixed nitrogen we add is lost. Imagine that--we lose the equivalent of 12 million nitrogen elephants (~165 billion pounds) every year"
Dr. Rob Mikkelsen, Yara's Director of Agronomic Services, helps us understand this statement and bust this myth.
