Nutrient Requirements and Fertilizer Management Strategies in Plant Cultivation

This Reprint brings together the peer-reviewed articles published in the Special Issue entitled "Nutrient Requirements and Fertilizer Management Strategies in Plant Cultivation". Plants require essential nutrients for growth, development and reproduction, and an insufficient or imbalanced nutrient supply can hinder plant growth and reduce yield. Balanced fertilization refers to supplying essential nutrients in optimal quantities and appropriate proportions, using suitable application methods and timing to match the specific requirements of crop needs and agroclimatic conditions, and it is central to improving nutrient use efficiency, sustaining productivity and reducing environmental impacts.

The research assembled in this Reprint spans fundamental and applied investigations into nutrient requirements and fertilizer management strategies in plant cultivation, considering not only the direct impacts of fertilizer practices on nutrient uptake and utilization but also the indirect effects of water management and soil improvement on nutrient dynamics. These studies provide an integrated perspective on varied diverse plant species cultivated in diverse systems and examined across physiological, molecular and ecological scales under different climatic conditions.
