Assesses the performance of phosphate rock compared to other phosphates on cereals and feed crops, and the conditions under which it raises yield. Anayses its profitability.
Low phosphorus (P) supply is a major limitation of forage production in acid soils of the tropics. A glasshouse experiment was conducted to determine the differences in P acquisition and utilization among three legumes (Arachis pintoi, Stylosanthes capitata and Centrosema acutifolium) and one gra...
