dc.abstract.enField zones at risk of low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) can be identified by analyzing in field spatial variability. This hypothesis was validated by analyzing soil mineral nitrogen (Nmin) and several plant and soil N management indices. The research was conducted in Karmin (central Poland) during two growing seasons, with winter oilseed rape (2018/2019) and winter wheat (2019/2020). The study showed that the crop yield was positively related to Nmin. However, this N trait did not explain all the observed differences in the spatial variation of crop yield and plant N accumulation. In addition, the soil N management indices were more spatially variable during the growing season than the plant Nmanagementindices. Particularly high variability was found for the indices characterizing the N surplus in the soil-plant system. The calculated N surplus (Nb = N fertilizer input − N seed output) ranged from −62.8 to 80.0 kg N ha−1 (coefficient of variation, CV = 181.2%) in the rape field and from −123.5 to 8.2 kg N ha−1 (CV = 60.2%) in the wheat field. The spatial distribution maps also confirm the high variability of the parameters characterizing the post-harvest N surplus, as well as the total N input (soil + fertilizer) to the field with rape. The results obtained indicate that a field N balance carried out in different field zones allows a more accurate identification of potential N losses from the soil-plant system.
