Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate nitrogen acidified soil and lowered broccoli yield and phosphorus uptake.
- Intervention effect Broccoli yield with combined ammonium sulfate and compost phosphorus was nearly identical to the highest experimental yields.
- Intervention effect Phosphorus use efficiency was highest with combined fertilizer nitrogen and compost.
- Association Phosphorus use efficiency tended to decline at the highest fertilization levels.
- Recommendation The authors suggest intensive organic matter management to improve vegetable crop phosphorus use efficiency.
