Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Surface lime increased soil pH.
- Intervention effect Surface lime increased exchangeable Ca and Mg contents and base saturation.
- Intervention effect Surface lime reduced Al3+ content and Al3+ saturation throughout the soil profile.
- Observation Liming effects were more pronounced in the 0-10 cm layer than in the 10-100 cm layers.
- Intervention effect Adding MAP or MAP + elemental S did not improve the effectiveness of surface liming in alleviating soil acidity.
- Observation Root length per soil surface area to 100 cm showed a strong correlation with wheat yield.
- Observation Root length per soil surface area to 100 cm was not correlated with soybean yield.
- Intervention effect Surface liming increased wheat yield by 40%.
- Intervention effect Surface liming increased soybean yield by 36%, regardless of MAP and elemental S.
- Intervention effect Wheat showed a greater yield response to P and S fertilizer than soybean.
- Intervention effect Surface liming had a more favourable impact on wheat root growth than on soybean root growth.
- Mechanism Wheat was more affected than soybean by insufficient rainfall, which is suggested to explain its greater root response.
