International Fertilizer Development Center
The International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) is an autonomous, nonprofit, public, international organization (PIO).
MISSION STATEMENTIFDC enables smallholder farmers in developing countries to increase agricultural productivity, generate economic growth, and practice environmental stewardship by enhancing their ability to manage mineral and organic fertilizers responsibly and participate profitably in input and output markets.

Maize:Impacts of Secondary and Micronutrients Relative to NPK

Burundi sites include dolomitic lime.
SMNs comprise a large portion of the total fertilizer response, but are less expensive than NPKs.

Adapting to the Climate
Climate-smart agriculture is an important U.S./EU priority. Discussions are well underway to “require” climate-smart fertilizer.
Fertilizers that release less NOx into the atmosphere.

Increasing Nutrient Use Efficiency
• Synchrony of Nutrient Supply with Crop Nutrient Demand• Balanced Fertilization• Integrated Crop Management• Nutrient Efficient Genotypes
![Page 24: The Fertilizer Industry Round Table DISCUSSION MODERATOR 2016 - Adapting to a changing climate - Scott...The Home of the U.S. Fertilizer Industry National Fertilizer Development Center](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070915/5fb5e80b60448741745325a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Improve Efficiency – Product Modification and Amendments
Slow and controlled‐release sources• Low water solubility – urea formaldehydes, phosphate rocks• Coated: S, rubber, polyurethane, polyolefins, etc.• Reacted layer technology• Inhibitors: PPDA, NBTPT, Boric acid, DCD, DMPP, nitrapyrine• Protectants/solubilizers: natural, synthetic
Surface application (no‐till farming), single application (labor and energy)
![Page 25: The Fertilizer Industry Round Table DISCUSSION MODERATOR 2016 - Adapting to a changing climate - Scott...The Home of the U.S. Fertilizer Industry National Fertilizer Development Center](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070915/5fb5e80b60448741745325a4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Improve Efficiency – Practice
• Knifed into the soil• Dribbled (banded) on the soil surface• Banded at planting• Sidedressed or topdressed during the growing season• Fertigation• Foliar spray• Deep placement (urea, NPK briquettes)

Today, fertilizers are responsible for between 40 and 60 percent of the world’s food supply.
