•Researchers identify novel approach to minimize nitrogen loss in crops
90% Informative
Texas A&M AgriLife Research team is working to find crop varieties that minimize escaped nitrogen.
The project is led by Nithya Rajan , Ph.D. , recently named director of the Center for Greenhouse Gas Management in Agriculture and Forestry .
The BNI trait helps retain nitrogen for longer periods of time in the soil.
The BNI trait should reduce the amount of nitrogen fertilizer required for production.
The ultimate goal is to develop a climate-smart sorghum that could count toward reducing the environmental footprint.
"Climate-smart crop varieties can prevent substantial nitrogen escape through water or as a greenhouse gas," Rajan says.
