Abstract
The need for increasing agricultural productivity on a sustainable basis is the primary concern of the agricultural research and development community. The International Fertilizer Development Center’s (IFDC) interest in natural resource and environmental management, specifically, efficient and improved use of inorganic, organic, and biological sources of nutrients, led to the realization that many of the problems in the nutrient efficiency domain can be adequately handled only by a multidisciplinary research approach. To achieve multidisciplinarity, a switch from reductionist scientific approach to systems approach was necessary.
