Mussaddiq Khan Khalil; Shuja-Ur-Rehman Qureshi; Muhammad Owais Khan; et al. Journal of Agricultural Science and Food Research 2019. doi:10.35248/2593-9173.19.10.268
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect All phosphorus treatments significantly affected nodulation and grain yield of mungbean relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Treatments containing phosphorus-enriched citrus waste compost gave far better results than treatments containing mineral fertilizers alone.
- Intervention effect Treatment with 4% DAP enriched citrus waste compost significantly increased mungbean grain yield by up to 65%.
- Intervention effect Treatment with 4% DAP enriched citrus waste compost significantly increased mungbean plant height by up to 49%.
- Intervention effect Rock phosphate alone gave the maximum nodule number, an increase of up to 72%.
- Intervention effect Rock phosphate alone gave the maximum nodule mass, an increase of up to 64%.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that pretreating DAP with citrus waste compost makes the soil favorable for long-term phosphorus uptake, resulting in better grain yield and yield attributes of mungbean.
- Recommendation The authors recommend assessing other levels and their effects on soil and crop yields together with environmental risks before wider, long-term recommendations.
