The topics covered include: the effect of cassava production on soil fertility (ie nutrient
absorption, distribution and removal in harvested products; nutrient losses by runoff and …

Abstracts Insufficient and unbalanced fertiliser use widens cassava yield gaps. We assessed
the spatial variability of optimal fertiliser requirements of cassava for enhanced nutrient use …

Cassava is a perennial crop that can adapt to periods of drought at different times in a
growing season, which permits scheduling planting and harvest to develop production …

Temporal changes in soil chemical and nutritional properties were evaluated in a long‐term
experiment conducted on Alfisols in West Africa. Effects of land use and cropping duration …

Nutrient limitations due to low soil fertility and insufficient fertilizer use widen cassava yield
gaps in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo). This study was undertaken to …

Cassava is often grown in low-fertility soils and has a reputation for having modest nutrient
requirements. The storage roots that are harvested, however, contain relatively large …

Four new cassava varieties (NR 8082, TMS 00033, TMS 91/453 and TMS 00447) were
fertilized with NPK (20-10-10) at the rates of 0, 200, 400, and 800 kg/ha in an experiment …

Background and aims Enhanced understanding of plant and nutrient interactions is key to
improving yields. We adapted the model for QUantitative Evaluation of the Fertility of …

Cassava is the main food crop for an estimated 30% of the population in Zambia where
yields of 5.8 t/ha are some of the lowest of any major cassava-producing country. A study …

ABSTRACT An Ustic Quartzipsamment was the soil that had light texture and very low
fertility status with intense leaching. A field experiment was conducted in a farmer field …
