Amendment with Burkina Faso phosphate rock-enriched composts alters soil chemical properties and microbial structure, and enhances sorghum agronomic performance

Amendment with Burkina Faso phosphate rock-enriched composts alters soil chemical properties and microbial structure, and enhances sorghum agronomic performance

Abstract Low soil available phosphorus (P) severely limits crop production in sub-Saharan Africa. The present study evaluated phosphate rock-enriched composts as locally available low-cost fertilizers for sorghum production. The treatments consisted of sorghum straw, compost (COMP), phosphate rock (...
