I have long argued that industry funded studies are about marketing, not science. That’s marketing, not science. If it were about science, the investigators would design their study to find out which product does a better job of reducing methane emissions, if any.

Are crops really inefficient at taking up nitrogen? Actually, no — crops take up and store N in grain and also in stalks, stems, leaves, and roots, which can sometimes be overlooked in nitrogen removal calculations, leading some to think that there is more N “lost” than is actually so.
