Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation In each harvest, nitrogen and sewage sludge interacted significantly for sorghum dry matter production, phosphorus concentration and phosphorus uptake.
- Observation In the first harvest, phosphorus and sewage sludge interacted significantly for sorghum phosphorus uptake.
- Intervention effect A 67 metric ton/ha sludge rate produced nearly the same sorghum yield as the nitrogen treatment.
- Intervention effect In the first harvest, sewage sludge significantly increased sorghum phosphorus uptake from the fertilizer phosphorus.
