@jki-research.bsky.social#FoodSecurity Versus Environmental Health: #Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the #environment can have negative effects.

@microbesinfo.bsky.socialTreating #manure with a #nitrification inhibitor reduced #soil #N2O and #NO #emissions, while #manure #acidification improved short-term ammonium retention but increased N2O emissions in sandy soil—showing soil type matters for #nitrogen management.
@ajstein.bsky.socialMissed it during the summer holiday? My paper on the EU’s dependence on imported #nitrogen fertilizer came out in July. With the problem ongoing, I show that using animal #manure to replace mineral #fertilizer is no solution. Why? Because… zenodo.org/records/2054... OR doi.org/10.1111/1746... +
@nonviolence.bsky.socialSymptom: Algal blooms.
Causes: Too many humans #overpopulation eating too much meat & dairy #overshoot.
For blue algae (cyanobacteria) one needs #nitrogen contamination too. Livestock and human overpopulations do that. Global Alteration of the Nitrogen Cycles:

@whep-erc.bsky.social📈 Did you know the #nitrogen surplus on Spanish cropland has grown 6.5x since 1860 — faster than fertilizer use itself? Synthetic fertilizer boosted yields, but unharvested N doesn't disappear: it leaches into rivers, drives biodiversity loss, and escapes as nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas
