“…Such positive effects of phosphorus are attributed to better nodulation and, consequently, improved atmosphere nitrogen fixation. These results agree with previous observations (Ogunwale and Olaniyi, 1978;Costa and Paulino, 1990). P requirements for maximum CP contents and yields were estimated at 63.3 and 91.4 mg P/kg, respectively (Table 2).…”

SUMMARYThe effects of fertilisers on the performance of three cultivars of pigeon pea, Cita‐1, Cita‐2 and Cita‐4, were measured in a pot experiment and a field trial from February to August 1982. The fertilisers were either applied as complete NPK (15‐15‐15) to the soil at a rate of 50 kg/ha in single or split doses within 4 wk of sowing, or as solutions containing 100 mg/litre each of N, P and K sprayed on to the plants 4 wk after sowing or at anthesis.The growth of pigeon pea was only enhanced significantly by fertiliser application in the field experiment but yields and their components were changed by fertilisers in both experiments. The magnitudes of the effects on growth and yield were similar with both methods of application.
