Abstract

Results from a long-term study showed that maize yields on depleted soils were marginally increased with multi-nutrient fertilizer application, while N fertilizer application alone resulted in lower yields on both sandy and clay soils. However, largest maize yields after nine seasons were achieved with cattle manure + fertilizer N application.
