Nitrogen (N) is the most required nutrient by maize and common bean, being necessary in low quantities at the beggining and in adequated quantities during the development of both crops. Urea is the main N source but it has a low N Use Efficiency (NUE) that is associated with N losses when this source is applied on the soil surface. A manner to increase NUE would be to use mixtures of poly…
