Our researchers published new article in Science of The Total Environment journal.
This study provides a comprehensive, globally scalable approach to optimizing nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer applications in rainfed wheat systems, ensuring high yields while minimizing environmental impacts. By leveraging GYGA-derived yield gap estimates and regression-based fertilizer prediction models, our findings offer a more sustainable and efficient pathway for global wheat production. The research underscores the importance of site-specific nutrient management, precision agriculture, and supportive policy interventions in promoting global food security while mitigating the negative effects of fertilizer overuse. Looking ahead, the integration of climate-resilient practices and improved fertilizer use efficiency will be critical for the long-term sustainability of wheat systems worldwide.
