Residual Effect of Nitrogen Fertilization on Nitrous Oxide Flux and Yield of Three Cowpea Varieties (Vigna unguiculata L.) in Rainfed Rice Fields
Nitrogen fertilizer use in rainfed rice fields is generally less efficient, only part of N is taken up by plants for their gowth and other N is lost and fixed by soil particles. Nitrogen loss in the form of nitrous oxide can reduce N fertilizer use efficiency and contribute to the increase of atmosp...

Improvement of Yield of Bean Grown on Inceptisol Jatinangor Applied with Granular Organic Fertilizer and Harvest Interval
Low bean production in Indonesia is caused by several factors such as poor soil condition and low quality of the pods. The use of granular organic fertilizer can optimize soil as a growing medium of beans. In addition, the application of harvest interval setting in combination with the use of granul...

The Role of Inundation Types of Tidal Swampland on the Chemical Properties of Potentially Acid Sulphate Soils under Fertilizer and Lime Application
Generally, fertilizer application increases soil fertility, on the other hand fertilizer application leads to the alteration of soil chemical balances in which the magnitude of changes is determined by soil properties. The research aimed to study the soil chemical properties of potentially acid sulp...

The Reactions of Common Chemical Fertilizers in An Ultisol and Their Effects on Cowpea Performance
Chemical fertilizers (CF) are the major input on arable farms in Nigeria. Current increasing rate of nutrient depletion in CF treated soils calls for the need to study their reactions in soils. To achieve this, three CF based treatments, namely NPK 15:15:15 applied at 40 kg P2O5 ha-1, Urea applied a...
