Land use effects on labile N extracted with permanganate and the nitrogen management index in the Cerrado region of Brazil

The effect of land use on the availability of nitrogen (N) was studied by separating total N into a labile and a stable fraction by oxidation and extraction of labile N with KMnO4. The nitrogen management index (NMI) was calculated following the method of Blair et al. (1995) for the carbon managemen...
