High-efficiency Nitrogen Fertilizers Are Not Effective in Reducing N2O Emissions from Drip-irrigated Cotton Field

Agricultural system is the major source of greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. Application of polymer-coated urea and urease and/or nitrification inhibitor has the potential in reducing soil N2O emissions.
