Soybean is currently the most cultivated oilseed in world. The objective of this study was to analyze chemical attributes Oxisol correlated with soybean productivity. evaluated were grain productivity, soil properties organic matter contents, phosphorous, pH, potassium, calcium, magnesium, hydrogen + aluminum, sum bases, cation exchange capacity (CEC), base saturation, liming requirement; penet...

Effects of P and S on growth and regrowth were assessed in a greenhouse trial in which Clitoria was grown through three cuttings on a deficient soil with a factorial combination of 4 levels of P and 3 levels of S. Phosphorus deficiency caused stunting, flowering delay, and a rusty appearance of leaflets. Sulfur deficiency caused stunting and chlorosis. With successive cuttings, P deficiency bec...

Microalgae can be used for the treatment of municipal wastewater. The application of microalgal biofilms in wastewater treatment systems seems attractive, being able to remove nitrogen, phosphorus and COD from wastewater at a short hydraulic retention time. This study therefore investigates the area requirement, achieved effluent concentrations and biomass production of a hypothetical large-sca...

In the present investigation, physicochemical properties, lime requirement, fertility status and DTPA extractable Zn of soils of Dimapur district of Nagaland were studied. The soils of study area were strong to moderate acidic in reaction with pH ranged from 4.12 to 5.30 and were normal in total soluble salts. The CEC of the soils was quite low, varied from 10.4 to 14.0 cmol (P) kg . The averag...
