Europe vs India: Volatilisation — Cropland nitrogen
Volatilisation — Cropland nitrogen over time
- Europe
- India
How they compare
India currently reports 6.18 million t against 5.41 million t in Europe, a difference of 761,910 t.
That makes India's figure about 1.1 times Europe's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 63 shared years of data; in 1961 it was Europe ahead.
Europe ranks 6th and India ranks 3rd of 32 groups.
Across the 7 decades both report, Europe averaged higher in 6 and India in 1.

About this data
The Cropland Nutrient balance domain contains information on the flows of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium from mineral fertilizer, manure applied, atmospheric deposition, crop removal, and biological fixation over cropland and per unit area of cropland. The flows are aggregated to total inputs and total outputs, from which the overall nutrient balance and nutrient use efficiency on cropland are calculated. Statistics are disseminated in units of tonnes and in kg/ha, as appropriate. Nutrient use efficiency is expressed as a fraction (%).
