Overuse of fertilizers and pesticides in China linked to farm size A new study finds chemicals are often used inefficiently on small farms in China. Land and migration policies may help explain why the country uses 30 percent of the world's fertilizers and pesticides on 9 percent of global cropland
Chinese farmers use an average of 305 kilograms of nitrogen per hectare per year - more than four times the global average.
etc.
And all of that wasted fertilizer is ending up in the environment. And we get over regulated as a result of the damage they are doing.
