Yield of common bean and chickpea as a function of soluble phosphate applied in pits or in the seeding row
01/Mar/1998
Phosphorus is the macronutrient that most often contributes to increasing the productivity of crops in Brazil. It has been shown that certain Rhizobium-plants symbiosis require higher levels of phosphorus, as compared to the nitrogen- fertilized plants. Several different ways of placing soluble phosphate were tested for both common beans and chickpea crops, with the objective of increasing the efficiency of using phosphorus available in the soil without increasing fertilizer amount. The common bean crop set up in Jaguapitã (PR), was […]
