Purpose: Yam cultivation in soils of low fertility has been a major cause of yield decline in Nigeria. The inadequacies associated with either inorganic or organic fertilizer in the aspects of crop growth and productivity necessitated the introduction of organomineral fertilizers. However, information on the appropriate placement method for sustainable cultivation is still limited. Hence, […]
Purpose Intensification of rice cultivation to meet the growing demand has imbalanced the nitrogen level in soil. Amendments of inorganic fertilizers increase yield, but at the same time affects the environment. Hence, different amendments are to be investigated which acting sustainably on soil and the environment upholds yield gains. Method A study was carried out on acidic […]
