摘 要:农田排放的氨是引发大气雾霾的关键原因之一。过去40年,为了提高作物产量与氮肥利用率,政府出台了多项农业政策,然而这些政策在农田氨减排方面的成效并未得到系统评估。基于环境-农艺措施耦合的农田氨排放模型与高分辨率农艺管理措施数据集,本研究估算了1980年至2050年中国农田的氨排放量,并首次量化了政策在其中所发挥的作用。结果表明,1980至1996年,农田氨排放量从1.93 Tg NH3-N增加至4.02 Tg NH3-N,2017年下降至3.50 Tg NH3-N,与作物产量已解耦。如果4项政策(测土配方施肥、发展高浓度氮肥、农业节本增效工程、菜篮子工程)不出台,2017年时农田氨排放会在现在的基础(3.50 Tg NH3-N)上增长约3.0 Tg NH3-N,这些排放主要集中在施肥强度高的种植区。优化肥料管理及农产品消费行为可以使得中国农田氨排放在2050时进一步减少3/4,此时单位产量的氨排放量可以降低至欧洲和美国的水平。研究结果为我国作物产量与氨排放解耦提供了证据,同时为其他发展中经济体制订农田氨减排策略提供了建议。
Abstract: Cropland ammonia (NH3) emission is a critical driver triggering haze pollution. Many agricultural policies were enforced in past four decades to improve nitrogen (N) use efficiency while maintaining crop yield. Inadvertent reductions of NH3 emissions, which may be induced by such policies, are not well evaluated. Here, we quantify the China's cropland-NH3 emission change from 1980 to 2050 and its response to policy interventions, using a data-driven model and a survey-based dataset of the fertilization scheme. Cropland-NH3 emission in China doubled from 1.93 to 4.02 Tg NH3-N in period 1980–1996, and then decreased to 3.50 Tg NH3-N in 2017. The prevalence of four agricultural policies may avoid ~3.0 Tg NH3-N in 2017, mainly located in highly fertilized areas. Optimization of fertilizer management and food consumption could mitigate three-quarters of NH3 emission in 2050 and lower NH3 emission intensity (emission divided by crop production) close to the European Union and the United States. Our findings provide an evidence on the decoupling of cropland-NH3 from crop production in China and suggest the need to achieve cropland-NH3 mitigation while sustaining crop yields in other developing economies.

Panels (a) and (b) represent the spatial pattern of cropland-NH3 emission trends in P1 (1980–1996) and P2 (1997–2017), respectively. Panel (c) represents the year began to decouple its NH3 emission from crop production, that is, the year which emission intensity turned to significant decrease (p<0.05) at province scale. Piecewise linear regression was applied to detect the provincial breakpoint following Zhou et al., (2020, see Text S8)
