| Summary: | An experiment to look into the influence of aging of phosphorus (P) fertilizer, P forms, P levels
and rainfall on the yield and P uptake by pasture grass Setaria splendida on a Bungor Series soil
(Typic Paleudult) was carried out. It was concluded that P treatment levels have more influence than
the aging and forms of P fertilizer used on the dry matter yield and P uptake by Setaria. Variations in
rainfall during the growing period of Setaria could account for up to a difference of39% in dry matter
yield and 20% of the P taken up. |
