Abstract:The aim of this research was to perform the energy analysis of Jatropha in two water management (full irrigation and rainfed) and four levels of nitrogen fertilization: 150% (N150), 100% (N100), 50% (N50), and 0% (N0) of the fertilization recommendation for the crop. The study was developed in the experimental field area located at Piracicaba/SP, Brazil, during the third growing season of Jatropha. Material and energy flow, energy balance (EB), and the energy return on investment (EROI) were determined for all… Show more
