NB! N losses from legume residues is determined by how well the release (supply) of mineralized N is synchronized with the demand of N by the following crops Good farming practise make a change here! Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences www.slu.se
Energy use by legume-based and N- fertilized systems • Fossil fuel is used in both systems for: – production of seed for sowing – by on-farm machinery for tillage, sowing, harvesting – in manufacture, transport and application of fertilizers – other agrochemical inputs used to either supplement crop nutritional requirements or for crop protection Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences www.slu.se
