A water budget accounts for...
Agricultural inputs like fertilizers, water,etc, are components that are added to improve the growth of plants. If not in optimum amounts, these can do more harm than good. Sometimes a spatiotemporal variation of yield is observed even in the same field due to the variation in the physical and chemical properties of soil such...
