t0“Pressmud”
e2“The effective dose of pressmud was 20 q/ha producing 129.4 and 65.2% increase in maize and wheat yield over control in its direct and residual values, respectively”
e4“Application of pressmud effectively increased the pH, exchangeable Ca and Mg, lime potential in soils and phosphorus and calcium uptake by crop”

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Pressmud at 20 q/ha increased maize and wheat yield over control by 129.4 and 65.2% in its direct and residual values.
- Intervention effect Application at 20 q/ha gave 100.8% higher wheat yield than the control.
- Intervention effect Pressmud application increased soil pH, exchangeable Ca and Mg and lime potential.
- Association Soil properties were significantly and positively correlated with crop yield.
- Observation Curvilinear regressions of pH on yield and pressmud dose were fitted to predict the pressmud amount to apply and the resulting crop yield.
