Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Three or four nitrogen applications gave sugarcane yields above 125 ton ha-1.
- Observation A 150 kg ha-1 nitrogen dose split into three applications gave the highest benefit to cost ratio of 1.8.
- Intervention effect A 150 kg ha-1 nitrogen dose split into four applications gave a low leaching loss of 15.4 kg ha-1.
- Intervention effect Low nitrogen doses in three or four applications did not reduce sugarcane production.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that lower nitrogen doses split three or four ways improve profitability and reduce leaching impact.
