PARTIAL SUBSTITUTION OF MINERAL FERTILIZERS WITH CATTLE DUNG COMPOST IMPROVES GRAIN YIELD WHILE REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS IN IRRIGATED LOWLAND RICE SYSTEMS
The growing dependence on mineral fertilizers in irrigated rice (Oryza sativa L.) production has raised production costs and increased greenhouse gas emissions, creating a need for more sustainable fertilization practices. This study explored whether part of the mineral fertilizer requirement could be replaced with cat...
