Peter J. Thorburn; A. J. F. Webster; I. M. Biggs; et al. 2007
Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Sugarcane yields under N replacement were similar to those under current N management.
- Intervention effect Profitability was higher under N replacement than under current N management.
- Intervention effect At one site in one year, yield with farmers’ N management was significantly higher than with N replacement.
- Intervention effect Yields with low N were little different from the other treatments.
- Intervention effect Low N showed some evidence of soil N depletion at two sites.
- Intervention effect The N surplus was estimated to be 85% lower under N replacement than under farmers’ current N management.
- Observation Trends in soil mineral N differed more between sites than between treatments.
- Observation Yields under N replacement were not sustained by mining N from the soil.
- Recommendation N replacement may be an economically and environmentally sustainable innovation in N management for sugarcane.
