XXIII NITROGEN WORKSHOP

The XXIII N workshop 2026 is being designed to address the complex nexus between N water, food, and energy at different scales, emphasising ecological transition and multiple dimensions of sustainability, including climatic, ecological, social, economic, and cultural aspects.

The Workshop will focus on emerging systemic challenges such as precision N management within the farm-to-fork food chain, N dynamics in drylands and wetlands ecosystems, croplands, livestock, forestry and agroforestry systems, the N-mediated coupling between social, economic and ecological processes, advanced strategies to apply nitrogen fertilisers in ways that reduce or avoid N losses and GHG emissions, especially nitrous oxide, even when increasing soil carbon through C-farming practices, and the NUE and N reuse from traditional and new recycled materials, will be among the pillars of the keynotes and related oral, poster and highly interactive sessions. The Workshop will also focus on indicators and decision support systems that can improve N management and characterise the evolution of N use at the farm and regional scales.
