A different method of using nitrogen in agriculture; Anhydrous ammonia

Nitrogen fertilization in vegetable production in agriculture is an inevitable application for plant growth and yield. The use of urea (46%)and nitrate (23-26%) for nitrogen fertilization is common in our country's agriculture. Nitrogen fertilization is carried out two or three times in different periods to meet the nitrogen requirement of the soil in wheat farming. Nitrogen fertilization is performed once in the pre-sowing period in developed countries such as America and Canada. Studies have also been carried out in order to ensure the use of similar nitrogen fertilization methods under the conditions of our country. Anhydrous ammonia, which is a raw material of nitrogenous fertilizers with 82.2% nitrogen content, was used for fertilizing as an environmental and economic method. The biggest problem in this application is the lack of equipment that can place the fertilizer into the soil due to the chemical properties of Anhydrous ammonia. In our work, we have developed equipment for the application of anhydrous ammonia and have carried out experiments on wheat farming in the region. Two different methods have been studied in the research; Anhydrous ammonia methods and traditional methods. The anhydrous ammonia method is a more advantageous method than the farmer condition method in terms of the parameters examined. Anhydrous ammonia method is a more environmentally and economical method due to the use of less fertilizer.
