NOTES: |
"Variable-charge soils of the humid tropicsa are frequently infertile in the extreme. In addition to low nutrient status, highly weathered sub-soils may present physical chemical barriers to roots. Limited resource farmers do not have the means to apply synthetic fertilizers but must maintain soil fertility through management of organic inputs. This work investigates differences in soil quality propeerties in highly-weathered variable-charge soils as a result of additions of organic nutrients. Study plots are located on the island of Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia..." |
