Combined Mineral and Organic Fertilizer Application Enhances Soil Organic Carbon and Maize Yield in Semi-Arid Kenya: A DNDC Model-Based Prediction

Combined Mineral and Organic Fertilizer Application Enhances Soil Organic Carbon and Maize Yield in Semi-Arid Kenya: A DNDC Model-Based Prediction

The application of mineral fertilizers can effectively enhance crop yields. However, this potential benefit may be diminished if the use of mineral fertilizers leads to a substantial decline in soil organic carbon (SOC) and an increase in soil greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This study aimed to dete...
