Closing maize yield gaps in sub-Saharan Africa will boost soil N2O emissions
In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the most important staple crop is maize; the production of which is dominated by smallholder farming systems using low external inputs (<10 kg N ha−1) resulting in low crop yields and large yield gaps (difference between actual and potential yields). To assess increases...
