Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
The net loss was equivalent to 0.1% of the applied fertilizer for ammonium chloride, 0.05% for ammonium nitrate and 0.01% for sodium nitrate. The worldwide total immediate loss of nitrous oxide-nitrogen after application of mineral fertilizer is estimated to be 0.004 – 1.2 Tg/y.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
