Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Irrigation significantly affected dry biomass yield.
- Observation About 34% of fertilizer N was used by the crop.
- Observation About 56% of fertilizer N remained in soil at season end.
- Observation About 1.83% of fertilizer N leached as nitrate.
- Observation About 1.72% of fertilizer N volatilized as ammonia.
- Intervention effect Fertilizer N uptake was lowest at I0.
- Intervention effect At N0, sorghum drew strongly on soil N reserves, impoverishing soil N.
- Observation At N120, N output matched input and soil N reserves were unchanged.
- Intervention effect At N180, the system was enriched in nitrogen.
- Recommendation Authors judged N180 unsustainable because of environmental side effects.
