Abstract

The main challenge faced by agriculture is to meet the growing global demand for food while reducing the negative environmental agricultural impact. Crop nutrition depends mainly on mineral fertilizers, which is a threat to the environment and human health. An alternative to solve this problem is the nutrition management integrated with mineral fertilizers and organic fertilizers to reduce the use of mineral fertilizers while favoring the productivity of crops, as well as the quality of agricultural products and the environment. This review compiles research results focused on integrated nutrition management, as part of the holistic functioning of agroecosystems, in several areas: a) soil quality; b) crop productivity and profitability; c) quality of agricultural products; d) emission of greenhouse gases; and e) nitrogen transfer to water.
