Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Yellow bean with urea yielded 382 kg ha−1 in the short rains, significantly higher.
- Observation Bean yield with water hyacinth compost was 1526 kg ha−1 in long rains.
- Observation Bean yield in the non-limiting phosphorus control was 1300 kg ha−1 in long rains.
- Intervention effect Rhizobia inoculant did not significantly increase bean yield in either season.
- Intervention effect Two seasons of bean cultivation and fertilizers had no significant influence on soil properties.
- Intervention effect Water hyacinth compost improved bean yield in the long rains.
- Recommendation Longer field testing and economic analysis are required before recommending compost as an inorganic nitrogen substitute.
