Comparing yield, nutritional quality, water and nitrogen use efficiencies of deficit drip and flood irrigated sorghum

Results showed that crop and irrigation treatments had an effect on yield and water use efficiency (WUE) (Figs 3, 4). The sorghum had significantly higher yields than corn for the treatments at p = 0.05 (Tables 1, 2) even though the crop height was lower than corn...

Long-term nitrogen fertilization can increase the availability of residual phosphorus in arable soil

Long-term nitrogen fertilization can increase the availability of residual phosphorus in arable soil

The agriculture in the Czech Republic has been characterized in the past thirty years by a reduction of 37% in basic fertilization with organic fertilizers, basic fertilization with phosphorus and potassium (a reduction of 73% and 82%, respectively), and conversely by...
