Subsurface banding increases ammonia emissions under rainfed cotton in Florida sandy soils by Kulpreet Singh, Eajaz A. Dar, Satinderpal Singh, Akash Shah, Lakesh Sharma, Hardeep Singh

“…Sampling weeks were referenced as WAF (weeks after fertilization) to standardize timing across both years. Results indicated that both daily and cumulative NH3; emissions were significantly higher with subsurface banding compared to surface broadcasting, leading to greater N-NH3; losses under banding. …”
