Question

Which statement(s) accurately describes nitrogen fertilizers and the nitrogen cycle? ? Most nitrogen is directly adsorbed from the atmosphere by plants. ? Excessive use or misuse of nitrogen fertilizers can do significant harm to both land and water ecosystems. ? Nitrogen fertilizers are not necessary for modern farming because nitrogen fixing bacteria can produce fixed sources of nitrogen faster than it is uptaken by crops. ? A little is good, a lot must be GREAT!
