Analysis
The most recent figure for biological fixation — cropland nitrogen in Paraguay is 682,008 t, measured in 2023.
That represents a change of up 43.1% on the previous year and up 14.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, biological fixation — cropland nitrogen in Paraguay peaked at 714,559 t in 2020 and was at its lowest, 3,107 t, in 1961.
That places Paraguay 8th out of 191 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top 10%.
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 (%).
