In fact, every acre of land in the world is covered by about 75 million pounds of N...37 thousand tons. Not a pound of that N can be used by crop plants until it is changed by natural processes or by commercial fertilizer production. Through various processes of 'fixation,' gaseous atmospheric N is changed to a plant-usable form... either ammonium or nitrate. It can be fixed by lightning and carried to the Earth's surface in rain or snow. It can be fixed by certain organisms in the soil and nodules on legume roots. Industrial fixation supplies the millions of tons of commercially produced N fertilizers required to grow crops around the world. Nitrogen is required in greater quantities by crops than any of the other essential nutrients, except potassium.
