Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Lower water requirement significantly reduced forage yield across four seasons each year.
- Intervention effect Fresh and dry forage yields and leaf/stem ratio did not differ significantly between full irrigation without humic acid and 80% irrigation with 6 L/ha humic acid.
- Intervention effect Protein content did not differ significantly under the irrigation and humic acid interaction.
- Intervention effect Irrigation water use efficiency increased with higher humic acid rates under water stress.
