World agriculture has made enormous advances in recent decades in increasing crop production largely through increasing the application of pesticides and synthetic fertilisers. Nitrogen (N) is a key nutrient and often a limiting factor for crop growth supporting the need for the addition of synthetic N fertilisers for most global agricultural systems. However a high proportion of this, often estimated to be >50%, is currently lost into the environment often through the soil via leaching or to the atmosphere as a gas emission. This loss of N to the environment is represents a significant economic loss and pollutes surface and ground-waters, impacting negatively on ecosystems and increasing greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). Cutting across this is our future need to increase agricultural production in order to meet the demands of global food security for the rapidly expanding population. This challenge will necessitate a significant improvement in the management of N and in particular Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) in both Brazil and the UK. The extent to which the release of reactive N can be mitigated to some degree through approaches related to improving agronomic NUE (e.g. using no-tillage systems, intercropping, combined crop-livestock systems, applying organic wastes to soils as amendments will be addressed here for the first time in an integrated holistic way between 13 partner organisations in Brazil and the UK. The NUCLEUS Virtual Centre will seek to undertake interdisciplinary research, with physical and social scientists, using the latest technologies to assess, understand and recommend new strategies concerning agronomic NUE management to support future crop development and food production. NUCLEUS will build on several current collaborations, whist generating many new ones for the future and seek to engage and inspire the next generation of scientists to tackle this important area. As the current level of understanding concerning the integration of these approaches is limited, there is potential for the outputs of NUCLEUS to be a bench mark for tropical and temperate agriculture throughout the world.

近几十年来，世界农业在增加作物产量方面取得了巨大进步，主要是通过增加农药和合成肥料的使用。氮（N）是一种关键的营养素，通常是作物生长的限制因素，因此全球大多数农业系统都需要添加合成氮肥。然而，其中很大一部分（通常估计为> 50%）目前通常通过土壤沥滤或作为气体排放到大气中而流失到环境中。氮素流失到环境中是一个重大的经济损失，并污染地表水和地下水，对生态系统产生负面影响，增加温室气体排放（GHG）。贯穿这一点的是，我们今后需要增加农业生产，以满足迅速增长的人口对全球粮食安全的需求。这一挑战将需要在巴西和英国的氮管理，特别是氮利用效率（NUE）的显着改善。通过与提高农艺NUE相关的方法（例如，使用免耕系统，间作，农作物-畜牧业联合系统，将有机废物作为改良剂应用于土壤），活性氮的释放可以在一定程度上得到缓解的程度将首次在巴西和英国的13个合作伙伴组织之间以综合的整体方式进行讨论。NUCLEUS虚拟中心将寻求与物理和社会科学家一起开展跨学科研究，利用最新技术评估，了解和建议有关农艺NUE管理的新战略，以支持未来的作物发展和粮食生产。NUCLEUS将建立在目前的几个合作基础上，同时为未来产生许多新的合作，并寻求参与和激励下一代科学家来解决这一重要领域。由于目前对这些方法的整合的理解水平有限，NUCLEUS的产出有可能成为全世界热带和温带农业的基准。
