Abstract:
... The effectiveness of new nutrient sources has been evaluated with the aim of replacing traditional fertilizers used in agricultural production, favoring sustainability actions. In order to evaluate agronomic efficiency, the objective of this study was to test whether alternative sources of potassium (K) from calcined Glauconite can be used for production of calla lily crop. The effects of 3 K sour ...

Abstract:
... Parasitic plants can cause significant economic losses to agriculture and are a major cause of food insecurity globally. N application has been shown to reduce the negative effects of facultative hemiparasites on their hosts, although the mechanism remains unclear. In previous studies, hosts and parasites were grown together with fertilizer treatments accessible by both plants, making it difficult ...

Abstract:
... Spring-summer production of lettuce under greenhouses is highly affected by Tipburn development, a physiological disorder attributed to localized calcium (Ca) deficiency. As Ca is distributed along the plant tissues together with the water flux, Tipburn development is related to environmental conditions. Until now, no growing condition that avoids this disorder, without an associated yield penalty ...

There have been several claims that because of more efficient uptake and reduction of losses, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in a fine particle application (FPA) form results in improved pasture yield responses compared with application in the standard granular form. A total of 22 structured trials comparing pasture and wheat yield responses from FPA and dissolved liquid with granular forms were ...

Abstract:
... Nitrogen fertilizer use efficiency can be estimated by using 15N enriched or 15N depleted synthetic fertilizers. However, it has also been proposed that differences in the relative natural 15N abundances (δ15N) of soil and fertilizer N can be used to estimate efficiency. This proposition is examined in this short communication on the basis of theory and published experimental data. The data did no ...

Abstract:
... Nitrogen (N) fertilization is challenging for sugarcane, and machine-based canopy sensors appear as an alternative to allow variable-rate N fertilization. Top or sidedressing N is applied in each crop row and crop spatial variability behavior must be understood to allow proper sensor placement and applicator configurations in order to optimize N fertilization. Thus, the goal of this study was to i ...
