The effect of physical form, moisture level and prolonged treatment period on the ammoniation of wheat straw using 75 9 urea per kg wheat straw was investigated in a 2 x 3 x 6 factorial experiment. Physical form was represented…
The effect of temperature, moisture level and treatment period on the ammoniation of wheat straw by 75 9 urea per kg wheat straw was investigated in a 4 x 2 x 6 factorial experiment. Independent variables included temperatures of 4;…
The relationship between nitrogen and other components in kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) from long-established pastures was investigated.
