The consequences of previous as well as current environmental conditions and management practices on the potential for phosphorus (P) to be lost by drainage from sandy soils in the short term (< I year) were studied in the laboratory and the field. The potential for P losses by drainage was estimated by measuring soil solution P levels and rapidly released P. Rapidly released P was measured by ...

organic fertilizers such as vermicompost (vc) are an undeniable source of required nutrients of plants. this field experiment performed as split plot arrangement based a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2008. the main factors (vermicompost treatments) added to soil at six levels including 20 and 40 ton.ha-1, 20 and 40 ton.ha-1 plus (1/2) chemical fertilizer, chemical ...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was grown in earthen pots containing soil of Balkasar Soil Series (Sandy Loam) in green house at the Department of Soil Science and SWC, Pir Mehr Ali Shah Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi during Rabi season, 2007. The Crop was treated with two levels of Phosphorus (40 and 80 kg P ha-1 ) in the form of SSP, TSP, NP and DAP. A basal doze of 100 kg N and 60 kg K...

this research set out to evaluate the effect of combined biological and chemical nitrogen fertilizers on some corn hybrids. to this end an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications. main plots were included: use of chemical and biological fertilizers in four levels: 100% chemical fertilizer, 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% bio-...

Liu G.D., Morgan K., Hogue B., Li Y.C., Sui D. (2015): Improving phosphorus use efficiency for snap bean production by optimizing application. Hort. Sci. (Prague), 42: 94–101. Phosphorus (P) is essential for crop production. Adequate application P rate is critical for enhancing productivity and profitability of snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The goal of this study was to optimize P applicat...

yazd asfordi phosphate rock (pr) was partially acidulated at five levels (0, 40, 60, 80, 100%) for increasing the relative agronomic effectiveness (rae) of canola (brassica napus l.), var. rgs in two calcareous and non-calcareous soils. the partially acidulated phosphate rock (papr) was compared vs. the standard fertilizer (triple superphosphate) in two levels (50 and 100 mg p/kg). this study w...
