Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect Lime raised soil pH by 0.4–1.3 units.
- Intervention effect Lime decreased soil aluminum saturation by 13–38%.
- Intervention effect Lime increased extractable soil calcium two- to three-fold.
- Observation Mean bean yield without lime was 444 kg ha −1 ha.
- Association Bean genotype had negligible effects on yield.
- Intervention effect Lime increased bean yield 76–313% over unlimed controls across locations.
- Intervention effect Liming increased shoot dry weight by 40%.
- Intervention effect Liming increased root dry weight by 18%.
- Intervention effect Liming improved nodule weight per plant by 110% at early flowering.
- Intervention effect Limed treatments had 23% higher plant density at maturity than unlimed controls.
- Mechanism Seasonal counts indicated that soil acidity inhibited seedling establishment.
- Intervention effect Liming increased pod number per plant by 67%.
- Intervention effect Liming increased seed number per pod by 18%.
- Intervention effect Liming increased seed weight by 7%.
- Mechanism The authors attribute increased yield to improved establishment and increased seed yield per plant.
- Mechanism Increased nodulation and nitrogen fixation may contribute to bean response to lime.
