Effects of a One-Time Application of Controlled-Release Nitrogen Fertilizer on Yield and Nitrogen Accumulation and Utilization of Late Japonica Rice in China
A mixture of controlled-release nitrogen (N) fertilizers (CRNFs) and conventional urea (CU) as a single application of basal fertilizer could simplify fertilization in rice cultivation from the traditional and more labor-intensive fertilization strategy of multiple applications of nitrogen. However,...
