Influence of Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer Formulations on Rice Yield in the Guinea Savanna Zone of Ghana

Abstract: Low soil fertility has been a major constraint to the increased and sustainable rice production in the Guinea savanna zone of Ghana. Studies were conducted in four locations to evaluate the yield of rice under different fertilization regimes. The fields were laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replications for each fertilizer treatment. Data were collected on grain yield and seed mass, and subjected to analysis of variance, with treatment means separated at a 5% level of significance. Sign… Show more

“…Rice research in Ghana is, therefore, skewed towards seed improvement interventions aimed at enhancing yield and pest/disease resistance (Abebrese et al, 2019;Fordjour et al, 2020;Tawiah et al, 2022). Efforts have also been made to better understand the effects of different fertilizer/nutrient management regimes (Fuseini and Benjamin, 2022;Sarkodee-Addo et al, 2021) and the socio-economic factors that influence farmers' adoption of improved rice varieties and other productivity enhancing technologies (Azumah et al, 2022;Tanko, 2022;Tanko and Ismaila, 2021;Quaye et al, 2022). In contrast, fewer studies have been conducted on the status of potential toxic elements (PTEs), e.g.…”
