Fertility and acidity status of latossolos (oxisols) under pasture in the Brazilian Cerrado.
The Cerrado region, with over 50 million hectares of cultivated pasture, provides 55% of Brazilian beef production. Previous investigations have shown that about 70-80% of this pasture is affected by some kind of degradation, leading to low productivity. However, until now, few surveys have been carried out on a regional scale. The aim of the present work is both to assess the fertility and aci...
متن کاملNitrogen Cycling in West African Ecosystems MICROBIOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS OF THE NITROGEN CYCLE IN WEST AFRICAN ECOSYSTEMS
The review is an attempt to specify particular features of the biological processes involved in the nitrogen cycle as they occur in the following categories of West African ecosystems : flooded rice .fields, rain-fed agroecosystems, and forests. In rice fields in Senegal the nitrogen input through blue-green algae was reported to be in the range -, of 1-30 kg ha-' yr-'. Figures for heterotrophi...
متن کاملElevated CO2 does not increase eucalypt forest productivity on a low-phosphorus soil
Rising atmospheric CO2 stimulates photosynthesis and productivity of forests, o setting CO2 emissions. Elevated CO2 experiments in temperate planted forests yielded ∼23% increases in productivity over the initial years. Whether similar CO2 stimulation occurs in mature evergreen broadleaved forests on low-phosphorus (P) soils is unknown, largely due to lack of experimental evidence. This knowled...
متن کاملImproving Phosphorus Availability in an Acid Soil Using Organic Amendments Produced from Agroindustrial Wastes
In acid soils, soluble inorganic phosphorus is fixed by aluminium and iron. To overcome this problem, acid soils are limed to fix aluminium and iron but this practice is not economical. The practice is also not environmentally friendly. This study was conducted to improve phosphorus availability using organic amendments (biochar and compost produced from chicken litter and pineapple leaves, res...
متن کاملThe globalization of N deposition: ecosystem consequences in tropical environments
Human activities have more than doubled the inputs of nitrogen (N) into terrestrial systems globally. The sources and distribution of anthropogenic N, including N fertilization and N fixed during fossil fuel combustion, are rapidly shifting from the temperate zone to a more global distribution. The consequences of anthropogenic N deposition for ecosystem processes and N losses have been studied...
