Mineralization of N, P, K, Ca and Mg from sesbania and leucaena leaves varying in chemical composition
The N.P.K. Ca and Mg release patterns of the leaves of four accessions of Sesbania species and two accessions of Leucaena species were evaluated in a 5-week laboratory incubation. Leaves of these leguminous trees, applied at an equivalent rate of 3 t dm ha-1, were significant sources of N, K and Mg,...
