Reducing soil phosphorus fixation to improve yield of zea mays l. cultivation on a tropical acid soil using compost and biochar derived from agro-industrial wastes
Phosphorus is an essential element required to maintain profitable crop production. Most soils of the tropics, such as Ultisols, are acidic and fix phosphorus because of their characteristically high contents of aluminium and iron. Compost and biochar could be used to mitigate phosphorus fixation by...
