Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Filter press mud increased cane yield in six experiments, including a residual-effect experiment.
- Observation Yield increases from filter press mud were higher in plant than ratoon cane.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen increased cane yield in all experiments.
- Intervention effect In five experiments, nitrogen rates above 94 kg N/ha gave higher cane yield.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus increased cane yield in seven experiments.
- Intervention effect Potassium produced a response in two of five experiments.
- Observation The filter press mud by phosphorus interaction occurred in six experiments and indicated interchangeability.
- Observation Filter press mud by nitrogen by potassium and filter press mud by nitrogen by phosphorus interactions were significant.
- Intervention effect Filter press mud improved cane quality in four experiments.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus fertilizer improved cane quality in three experiments.
- Recommendation The authors recommend omitting phosphorus fertilizer when filter press mud is applied at 20 metric tons per hectare dry weight.
- Recommendation The authors suggest ratoons following plant cane may need less phosphorus fertilizer than normal, especially at high filter press mud rates.
- Recommendation The authors recommend nitrogen rates above 94 kg/ha, particularly on coarser textured soils.
