Lifecycle environmental benefits of integrated rational fertilization, biochar, and constructed wetland in mitigating nutrient loading by Yu-Ning Chen, Chihhao Fan, Michal Šereš, Markéta Šerešová, Jan Vymazal, Shu-Yuan Pan

“…Regarding the carbon footprint, the production of plums using conventional agriculture emits ∼300 kg CO2-eq per ton-plum, whereas using green agricultural practices results in only ∼138 kg CO2-eq per ton-plum, representing a reduction of 45.8 % in greenhouse gas emissions. This study highlights the potential of green agricultural practices to mitigate NPS nutrient loadings to aquifers and achieve sustainable agricultural management through reduced global warming and other environmental impacts.…”
