Soil amendments and phosphorus fertilizer increase maize productivity and improve the fertility of acidic soils in Southwestern Ethiopia
Soil acidity is a major constraint to crop production in tropical regions, primarily due to aluminum toxicity and reduced nutrient availability. This challenge is widespread in the highlands of Southwestern Oromia, Ethiopia, where maize is a staple and cash crop. This study evaluated the effects of...
