Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The direct soil emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) associated with crop production is a major concern for future climate. This NebGuide addresses soil and crop management practices for reduced soil N2O emission such as fertilizer-N use and additives, managing anaerobic soil conditions, crop rotations, tillage, crop residue harvest, cover crops and manure use. These practices often have multiple benefits and low or no cost.
