Nitrite
Definition: nitrite
nitrite: 1. an ion with the formula NO2. 2. a chemical compound containing the nitrite ion, e.g., sodium nitrite. Nitrites are formed by bacteria from nitrogen as an intermediate stage in the formation of nitrates. Managing nitrite levels in soil and water is important for ensuring crop and livestock health. Farmers can benefit from regular testing and monitoring of nitrite concentrations, particularly in irrigation water and feed. Implementing practices that reduce nitrite accumulation, such as proper waste management and balanced fertilization, helps protect plant and animal health.
