Synopsis

This book is a compelling compendium of the science and history of nitrogen assimilation in rice, exploring the evolution of our understanding on this topic. It examines earlier beliefs, questioning the long held view of nitrate supremacy for plant growth and absorption. The author presents meticulously designed field trial and laboratory experiments, offering conclusive evidence that challenges these earlier assumptions. The book highlights the detrimental effects of nitrate-based fertilizers on rice cultivation, demonstrating how nitrates are ineffective and even harmful to the crop, while spotlighting the remarkable benefits of nitrogen in the form of ammonia. The study also investigates the potential reasons behind rice's inability to utilize nitrates effectively, opening new avenues for research and exploration. This book is a valuable contribution to the field of agricultural science, offering practical insights for farmers and researchers alike, and shedding light on the complex interactions between plants and their nutrient environment.
