Sustainable nitrogen fixation: Agrochemical research in food production adapted to planetary limits

[EN] Today's global food production depends on the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen by using the Haber-Bosch process. The application of this catalytic system laid the foundations for the development of industrial agriculture and led to an unprecedented acceleration in the growth of human s...
