    Modelling plausible impacts of Biological Nitrification Inhibition in Australian farming systems
    Retaining nitrogen (N) in soils in the form of ammonia (NH4) by inhibiting nitrification processes has been long hypothesised as a solution to N loss from denitrification and leaching of nitrate (NO3) below the root zone. Enhanced-efficiency…
