Other claims from this paper (19)
- Recommendation Initial requirements for vigorous white clover growth include at least 30 cwt agricultural limestone per acre.
- Recommendation Initial requirements for vigorous white clover growth include 9 to 12 cwt superphosphate equivalent phosphate.
- Recommendation Initial requirements for vigorous white clover growth include 3 to 4 cwt potassium chloride.
- Recommendation Initial requirements for vigorous white clover growth include about 20 lb elemental sulphur.
- Recommendation Initial requirements for vigorous white clover growth include 5 lb each of copper and zinc sulphates and 1 oz sodium molybdate.
- Recommendation Maintenance needs include about 5 cwt limestone per acre per year.
- Recommendation Maintenance needs include 6 cwt superphosphate per acre.
- Recommendation Maintenance needs include 3 to 4 cwt potassium chloride and 20 lb elemental sulphur per acre.
- Mechanism Low retentive capacity of this soil, combined with high rainfall, is associated with rapid nutrient leaching and high maintenance needs.
- Intervention effect Leaf N concentrations of white clover increased with monocalcium phosphate and lime applications.
- Intervention effect Leaf N concentrations of white clover increased with molybdenum applications.
- Method / resource Nutrient-to-N ratios were superior to absolute nutrient concentrations for diagnosing white clover nutrient status.
- Association Yield response to P occurred when the N:P ratio in white clover leaves was above about 14:1.
- Association An N:S ratio in clover leaves above about 18:1 indicated sulphur deficiency.
- Association Yield responses to copper of more than 100 percent were associated with copper-deficient white clover.
- Observation Copper-deficient white clover plants had mean leaf Cu of 2.0 ppm and N:Cu ratios above 11,000:1.
- Observation Slightly higher Cu levels were found in some of the most stunted copper-deficient white clover plants.
- Association Yield responses to zinc averaging 32 percent were associated with zinc-deficient white clover.
- Observation Zinc-deficient white clover had mean leaf Zn of 15 ppm, with P:Zn ratios above 200:1 and N:Zn ratios above 2,200:1.
