Soil Hydraulic Properties Control Nitrate Leaching Under Continuous Rice Cultivation: Insights from Local Hydro-Pedotransfer Modeling and HYDRUS-1D
Nitrogen fertilization in flooded rice systems can promote nitrate leaching and groundwater contamination, particularly where groundwater is used for human consumption. This study aimed to assess soil susceptibility to nitrate leaching toward groundwater in rice-growing areas of Rioja, San Martín, Peru. Sampling was ba...
