Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Common bean did not respond to rhizobia inoculation.
- Intervention effect P significantly increased the number of nodules and active nodules per common bean plant.
- Intervention effect P significantly increased grain yield of common bean.
- Intervention effect Application of 40 kg ha−1 N significantly increased pods per plant, seeds per pod and grain yields of common bean.
- Association A significant NP interaction on grain yield of common bean occurred only on non-degraded soils.
- Intervention effect Co-application of N and P increased grain yields of common bean on non-degraded sites in the first season.
- Intervention effect NP application produced small grain yield gains of common bean on degraded sites in the first season.
- Intervention effect NP application produced small grain yield gains of common bean on degraded sites in the second season.
- Intervention effect Effects of N or P on common bean did not differ significantly.
- Recommendation Farmers could invest in either N or P to increase common bean grain yields.
- Recommendation P investments would be more logical than N investments because residual P effects to rotational cereals improve overall cropping system performance.
