Effects of Lime and Nitrogen on Properties of an Acidic Soil and Nutrient Content of Sugarcane under Sugarcane – Soybean Intercropping in Kenya

sugarcane leaves., Ernest Semu, John Msaky & Philip Owuor · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2016

Acidified soils are a constraint to crop production due to imbalance in availability of essential plant nutrients. Liming is known to increase soil pH, however, efficient use is critical to ensure cost effective use. Therefore, determination of efficient lime application method i...

Effects of Cropping Systems, Lime Placement Methods and Rates on Sugarcane Yields and Quality under Acidified Soils of Kibos, Kenya

Jacob Omondi Omollo, Ernest Semu, John Msaky & Philip Owuor · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2016

This field study was conducted to investigate whether appropriate lime placement methods, lime rates and intercropped sugarcane with soybeans leads to amelioration of soil Ph, hence, increased yields and quality of sugarcane for plant and ratoon one crop cycles. Cambisols of the...
