THE EFFECT OF LIMING AND PHOSPHORUS APPLICATION ON THE LEAF NUTRIENT CONTENTS OF CASHEW ON TIN TAILING AND BRIS SOILS IN MALAYSIA |
| Authors: | A.J. KAMAL, W. RAHMAN, O. YAACOB |
| Abstract:
Liming increases the pH of bris soils much more than tin tailing soils eventhough both are sandy in texture. Increasing the amount of lime increases the N, P and K content of the young cashew leaves but not that of mature leaves. In bris soils response to lime and phosphate fertilizer application was better. Application of lime and phosphorus both together increased the N, P and K content of the young leaves on both these light textured soils in Malaysia. | |
