Analysis
Tunisia recorded 1.98 kg/ha for leaching — cropland nitrogen per unit area in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 22.8% on the previous year and up 14.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, leaching — cropland nitrogen per unit area in Tunisia peaked at 3.02 kg/ha in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0.2219 kg/ha, in 1961.
That places Tunisia 172nd out of 201 countries with data for 2023, putting it 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 (%).
