Common beans grain yield as affected by phosphorus fertilization in the sowing furrow and foliar.

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that foliar P application would increases the efficiency of utilization of P from soil by common bean fertilization

Phosphate fertilization in the soil and penergetic application in the grain yield of common bean.

The objective was to determine the grain yield and yield components of common bean as affected by P fertilization and applying Penergetic K (soil) and P (plant)

Genotype selection and addition of fertilizer increases grain yield in upland rice in Suriname.

The upland rice farmers in Suriname use local varieties and low level technologies in the field. As a result, the upland rice grain yield is low, at about 1 000 kg ha-1. Our objective was to evaluate the use of upland rice cultivars from Suriname and Brazil, and the effect of nitrogen, N, phosphorus, P, and potassium, K, fertilizers on cultivation variables. We undertook four field trials in the Victoria Area, in the Brokopondo District, using a randomized block design each with four replications. The most productive rice varieties were BRS Esmeralda (grain yield 2 903 kg ha-1) and BRS Sertaneja (2 802 kg ha-1). The highest grain yield of 2 620 kg ha-1 was achieved with a top dressing application of 76.41 kg N ha-1 20 days after sowing. For P, the highest grain yield of 3 085 kg ha-1 was achieved with application of 98.06 kg ha-1 P2O5 applied at sowing. An application rate of 31.45 kg ha-1 of K2O at sowing achieved the highest grain yield of 2 952 kg ha-1. Together, these application rates of N, P and K resulted in rice grain yield of about 3 000 kg ha-1, which is three times greater than the national average for upland rice. We demonstrate that the use of improved rice varieties matched to the local conditions, and application of appropriate fertilizers, are management practices that can result in significant increases in rice grain yield in Suriname

Application of liquid calcium carbonate micron particles on the furrow as affecting the soil phosphorus availability and common bean yield.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the liquid application of calcium carbonate micron particles in the sowing furrow on the pH, the concentrations of Al, P, K, and Ca, and the base saturation in the soil and on the yield components, grain yield, concentration, and grain content of common bean

Nutrient uptake and use efficiency by tropical legume cover crops at varying pH of an Oxisol.

The objective of our study was to evaluate growth and nutrient uptake parameters of 16 tropical legume cover crops under three soil pH (5.1, 6.5, and 7.0) of an Oxisol

Levels of N as coated urea as affecting upland rice production.

The objective of this field research was to determine the effect of N rates applied in the form of coated urea in the grain yield of upland rice
