4 steps- Nitrogenase reduces Dinitrogen to Ammonia at about 16 ATP per N2 (N2 + 8 H+ + 8 e- + 16 ATP gives 2 NH3 + H2)
- Free-living heterotrophic fixers add only about 1-5 kg N per ha per year in most ecosystems
- Legume symbioses supply tens to over 100 kg N per ha per year; agricultural fixation totals about 50-70 Tg N per year
