Innovative enhanced efficiency fertilizers

Technologies that are affordable and will help reduce the environmental impacts of U.S. corn and other row crop production while maintaining or increasing crop yields. Ideally, technologies could be applicable to improve production of many crops in the U.S. and abroad. These technologies should maintain or increase yields relative to conventional fertilizers and come with a net reduction of nutrient losses (nitrogen and especially phosphorus) to the environment via leaching, runoff, ammonia volatilization, and nitrous oxide emissions.
