Agronomic performance and morphogenic and structural characteristics of Axonopus aureus pastures under phosphate fertilization levels in the Roraima’s savannas
Abstract:The effect of phosphate fertilization (0, 30, 60 and 120 kg of P2O5 ha-1) on forage production and morphogenetic and structural characteristics of Axonopus aureus was evaluated under natural field conditions in the savannas of Roraima. Phosphate fertilization positively and significantly (P<0.05) affected green dry matter (GDM) production, absolute growth rate (AGR), number of tillers plant-1, number of leaves tiller-1 (NLT), average leaf size (ALS), leaf tiller area (LTA), appearance rates (LAR), expansion… Show more
