Abstract:Rice is the primary energy source of more than half of the global population. Challenges persist in managing phosphorus (P) in paddy soils of tropical rice-growing countries. In Sri Lanka, one specific challenge is the inconsistent yield response observed when inorganic P fertilisers are applied to paddy soils. Previous research conducted in Sri Lanka has shown that the rice yield response to added P fertilisers cannot be adequately explained by factors such as soil available P, irrigation schemes, soil textur… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
