Numerical Treatment of Threats to Rice Production Due to Excess Use of Chemical Fertilizers

In many developing Asian nations, including Bangladesh, rice is a vital source of nutrients for maintaining food security and rural livelihoods; the majority of the world's produced rice crop is eaten by humans. In the near future, our supply of rice may be threatened by the heavy reliance of rice agriculture on chemical pesticides and fertilisers to meet the needs of an expanding population on a little amount of land. A system of non-linear ordinary differential equations has been recently developed as a mathematical model depicting the impact of falling soil fertility, based on this growing concern for food security. The model has been examined both analytically and numerically. .........................
