Climate-smart crop-livestock systems for smallholders in the tropics: integration of new forage hybrids to intensify agriculture and to mitigate climate change through regulation of nitrification in soil

It is widely recognized that less than 50% of applied nitrogen (N) fertilizer is recovered by crops and,based on current fertilizer prices,the economic value of this "wasted" N globally is currently estimated as US$81 billion annually. Worse still, this "wasted" N has major effects on the environmen...
