"Properly
managed fertilizers support cropping systems that provide economic, social and
environmental benefits. On the other hand, poorly managed nutrient applications
can decrease profitability and increase nutrient losses, potentially degrading
water and air. Understanding how fertilizers behave in the phytobiome is a
component of making the right fertilizer source, rate, timing, and placement
decisions in each field." Sally flis
