Analysis
The most recent figure for biological fixation — cropland nitrogen in Mongolia is 108.06 t, measured in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.5% on the previous year and down 5.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, biological fixation — cropland nitrogen in Mongolia peaked at 249.65 t in 1987 and was at its lowest, 7.64 t, in 1971.
Mongolia ranks 167th of 191 countries on this measure, in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

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 (%).
