Nutrient balances—a guide to improving sorghum- and groundnut-based dryland cropping systems in semi-arid tropical India

2003-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Information on soil-plant nutrient balance in India and elsewhere is scarce and mostly generalized. A review of earlier studies on nutrient balances was done to assess their relevance for researchers, policy makers, and farmers' understanding, to manage soil fertility for sustainable crop productivity. An on-farm nutrient balance study during 1995/1996 and 1996/1997 was designed to understand nutrient balances res...
