Analysis
The most recent figure for input — cropland nitrogen in Kenya is 379,810 t, measured in 2023.
That represents a change of up 20.3% on the previous year and up 12.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, input — cropland nitrogen in Kenya peaked at 387,741 t in 2020 and was at its lowest, 55,355 t, in 1961.
That places Kenya 51st out of 201 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top 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 (%).
