“Now they're limited to the amount of litter they can apply so they have a bill for the additional nitrogen as an inorganic form. They also have the extra litter that needs to be stored or transported off their farm.”
Steve Phillips
“Key would be the detection of carbon and nitrogen containing particles.”
Chris McKay
“The fact that much of our supply of nitrogen fertilizers is imported should somewhat buffer the direct impact of Katrina's damage to natural-gas production capacity, but in the short run, nitrogen prices could increase,”
Alan Miller
“My Ph.D. thesis concerned the metabolic mechanism by which the end product of nitrogen metabolism in the earthworm is switched from ammonia to urea during starvation. I remember spending my nights collecting over 5,000 worms from the University campus green.”
Stanley Cohen
“We think we've seen the last of those effects, as natural gas and nitrogen prices have now returned to pre-hurricane levels.”
Michael Bennett
“Additionally, how successful a cover crop is established also determines how much nitrogen is captured.”
Robert Mullen
“Record-high U.S. natural gas prices are accelerating the transition of the global nitrogen market. Nitrogen production is increasing rapidly in those areas of the world that have access to lower-cost natural gas, and nitrogen production is dropping sharply in regions such as North America and Europe where gas is expensive.”
