Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Study on Response of Sugarcane Genotypes to Phosphorus Fertilizer in Western Guangdong, ChinaJin Li, Chao Zheng, Xianmin Wang et al.To optimize Phosphorus (P) fertilization, three sugarcane genotypes(ROC22, LC5135, and YT236) widely cultivated in western Guangdong, China wereused for the experiment in which 5 levels of P fertilizer were set up to studythe effects of their application. The results showed that: (1) P fertilization amountwithin 288 kg/hm2 P2O5 could increase theplant height, stem diameter, and weight and yield of sugarcanes. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2022 · 5,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE IMPACT OF THE POLYMER COATING NUTRISPHERE™ IN INCREASING NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY AND CORN YIELDTimothy A. Smith, Ronnie W. Heiniger, Pawel WiatrakCurrently, it is estimated that 50 to 60% of the N applied fertilizer is actually utilized by the crop with the remaining N lost through leaching or denitrification. A three year study was conducted at eight locations in North Carolina to examine the impact of Nutrisphere™ on corn yield, optimum N rate, maximum yield, tissue N concentration, plant biomass and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2013 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAgronomic and Economic Parameter Estimates of Cocoyam as Influenced by Fertilizer and EnvironmentPrince Emmanuel Norman, Yvonne Sylvia Gloria Ethel Norman, Jenneh Fatima BebeleyThe effects of fertilizer and environment on agronomic traits and economic parameters in cocoyam were assessed at the Njala Agricultural Research Centre experimental site during the 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 cropping seasons. The fertilizer types used were 200 kg ha–1 NPK 15-15-15, 2000 kg ha–1 Rabbit Manure (RM), and no fertilizer (control). The trial was established in the open field and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2022 · 6,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Efficiency Potassium Fertilizer in Soybean and Cotton CropAdilson Pelá, Mário Miyazawa, Luciano G. Gil et al.Adequate plant nutrition is very important to soybean and cotton crops to express its potential production. Among plant nutrients, potassium (K) plays an important role in plants to achieve high yields. Potassium fertilization is an important tool for soybean and cotton high yields achieving because K absence reduces foliar K content and plant growth. Several strategies have been used to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 13 Aug 2020 · 7,691 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Suitable Irrigation Amount of Microporous Membrane Water-Fertilizer Integration of Tomato in Spring in Plastic GreenhouseXiao Huaijuan, Du Qingjie, Zhang Jiaxin et al.Water-saving irrigation is an important measure to alleviate the shortage of water resources in China. In this study, the growth, nutrient distribution, quality and yield of Tomato under different irrigation treatments are studied by using microporous membrane water-fertilizer integrated technology and the optimal irrigation water quantity under the condition of microporous membrane water-fertilizer integration was determined. The results show that … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2020 · 7,403 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
