Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Organic Based N Fertilizer on Dry Matter (Zea mays L.), Ammonium and Nitrate Recovery in an Acid Soil of Sarawak, MalaysiaSusilawati Kasim, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Nik Muhamad Ab. Majid et al.Problem statement: Exchangeable ammonium (NH4+) could be recovered by humic and fulvic acids from humic substances. The ability of these acids in fixing or retaining NH4+ has been demonstrated in many findings and reports. Both acids could affect the plant growth, nutrients uptake by enhancing photosynthesis rate and root growth among others. Thus, in this study, the effect of both … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 8,244 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTHE 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
