Effects of Nitrogen Application on Sweet Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) in the Semi-Arid Tropical Zone of India
Sweet sorghum is a multipurpose crop that has great potential as a bioethanol crop. To make an appreciable
profit from cultivating sweet sorghum in the semi-arid tropics (SAT), such agronomic practices
as nutrient management ...
Nutrient Deficiencies and their Management in Soils ·of the Semi~Arid Tropical Regions
In the semiarid
tropics (SAT) regions, the loss of soil, organic matter, and nutrients are of great concern. Nutrient imbalance in the
case of major plant nutrients has been reported for a long period of time as a result ...
CALIBRATING CHLOROPHYLL METER (SPAD-502) READING BY SPECIFIC LEAF AREA FOR ESTIMATING LEAF NITROGEN CONCENTRATION IN SWEET SORGHUM
The chlorophyll meter (SPAD-502) is used to estimate nitrogen status of various crops. However,
the relationship between SPAD readings and leaf nitrogen concentration (LNC) in sweet sorghum
(Sorghum bicolor) has not been ...
Soil Testing as a Tool for On-Farm Fertility Management: Experience from the Semi-arid Zone of India
Rainfed agriculture in the dry regions is affected by water shortages. Our earlier
research showed that the deficiencies not only of major nutrients but also those of sulfur
(S) and micronutrients are holding back the ...
