This article looks at two recent reviews that highlight the effectiveness of stabilized nitrogen fertilizers in reducing N 2 O emissions in Midwest corn production. Are these findings consistent with other research in a wider geography or other cropping systems? What are the impacts of stabilized nitrogen sources on other nitrogen losses? What are the effects on crop yields? Earn 0.5 CEUs in Nutrient Management by reading this article and taking the quiz at www.certifiedcropadviser.org/education/classroom/classes/607 .
