Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect 30 kg P ha −1 doubled sesame yield across site-years.
- Intervention effect Manure increased sesame grain yield by 25% without fertilizer.
- Intervention effect Manure increased sesame grain yield by 6% with 15 kg P ha −1.
- Observation Manure P had an estimated fertilizer P equivalent of 1.72 kg kg −1 without fertilizer P.
- Intervention effect Intercropped sesame yield was about 41% below sole crop yield on average.
- Intervention effect Intercropped pearl millet yield was about 41% below sole crop yield on average.
- Intervention effect Intercropping had a land equivalent ratio of about 1.2 relative to sole crops.
- Observation Economically optimal P rate for sole sesame ranged from 14 to 34 kg P ha −1.
- Observation Economically optimal P rate for sesame–pearl millet intercrop ranged from 0 to 15 kg P ha −1.
