- Observation Preplanting soil pH was 5.77 under slash and burn and 5.95 under slash and mulch.
- Observation Preplanting soil N was 1.8 gkg-1 under slash and burn versus 0.9 g kg-1 under slash and mulch.
- Observation Preplanting soil P was 2.05 mgkg-1 under slash and burn versus 0.86 mg kg-1 under slash and mulch.
- Observation Preplanting soil K was 0.11cmol (+) kg-1 under slash and burn versus 0.07cmol(+)kg-1 under slash and mulch.
- Intervention effect Plant height did not differ significantly between land preparation methods.
- Intervention effect Leaf area differed significantly between land preparation methods.
- Intervention effect Fresh pod weight was 908.6kg ha-1 at 60 kg P ha-1 under slash and burn, significantly different from other treatments.
- Intervention effect Dry pod weight was 558.0kg ha-1 at 60 kg P ha-1 under slash and burn, significantly different from other treatments.
- Intervention effect Leaf and root nutrient concentrations differed significantly among treatments.
- Intervention effect The highest leaf phosphorus content was 3.502 mg kg-1 at 90kg P ha-1 under slash and mulch.
- Intervention effect The highest root phosphorus content was 0.272 mg kg-1 at 30 kg P ha-1 under slash and mulch.
- Intervention effect Slash and burn had the highest peanut seed pods per shell at 60 kg P ha-1.
- Recommendation The authors conclude phosphorus fertilization under slash and burn generally gave better results than slash and mulch.
