Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Increasing NPK dose from 0 to 100% significantly improved sorghum root dry matter at 60 days and harvest.
- Intervention effect Integrated organic and inorganic fertilization produced significantly more sorghum root and shoot dry matter than inorganic fertilizer alone.
- Intervention effect Integrated organic and inorganic fertilization accelerated sorghum root and shoot growth compared with inorganic fertilizer alone.
- Intervention effect Shoot growth was greater between 60 days and harvest under the organic combinations than under 100% NPK.
- Intervention effect Root growth was greater between 30 and 60 days under the organic combinations than under 100% NPK.
- Intervention effect Organic and inorganic fertilizer combinations exceeded sole inorganic fertilizer in water use efficiency, grain and straw yields, and harvest index.
- Intervention effect The 75% NPK plus poultry manure treatment had the highest water use efficiency, grain and straw yields, yield attributes and economic returns in both years.
