The minimization of nitrogen (N) loss and enhancement of efficient N use are of great importance in agricultural crop production. Here we propose a method of one-time root-zone targeted fertilization (ORZTF), to reduce ammonia volatilization (AV) loss and increase N use efficiency. ORZTF is updated...
