Enhancing the Productivity and Sustainability of Bambara Groundnut (<i>Vigna subterranea</i> (L.) Verdc.) Production Using Inorganic Phosphorus Fertilizer
Abstract:Phosphorus (P) is a vital element required for nodulation, stomatal regulation and photosynthesis in legume crops. P-deficiency in tropical soils limits the growth and productivity of Bambara groundnuts. The current study focused on determining the potential suitability of underutilized crops for food security using phosphorus fertilizer as soil amendment practice. A field trial was carried out at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research-Crops Research Institute (CSIR-CRI), over two growing seasons t… Show more
