“…Seed yield and harvest index Analysis demonstrated highly significant (P ≤ 0.01) differences amongst the tested genotypes, GE interaction and environments for seed yield (Table 1). Similar results were also documented by past researchers Macil et al (2017) for seed yield in chickpea genotypes. Across environments, the most productive genotype for seed yield was NKC-5-S-12 while the least productive was NDC-5-S-10 (Table 4).…”

“…At higher fertilizer levels, phosphorus loss followed the same trend observed for the growth of crown diameter, suggesting a positive correlation between phosphorus loss and crown diameter growth. At the same time, phosphorus in the substrate material affects plant height [49]. Based on the one-yearlong observations, the biomass of A. fruticosa was stable.…”

The number of road engineering and construction projects that create rock slopes has been increasing year by year, instigating a series of geologic hazards and ecosystem destruction such as landslides, mudflows, and so on. The ecosystems are thus in an urgent need for recovery and reconstruction. However, ecological restoration processes of rock slopes are more challenging compared to those of clay slopes because rock slopes are highly heterogeneous and do not provide favorable soil conditions for plant growth, especially due to the lack of nutrient accumulation and lower heat and moisture capacity [1]. Thus, rock slopes present complex and varied ecosystems that do not support plant growth.Pol. J. Environ. Stud. Vol. 27, No. 6 (2018), 2821-2832 AbstractWe investigated substrate material and the effects of different fertilizers and water levels as variable factors for slope restoration. A field rainfall monitoring experiment was carried out to explore morphological changes in Amorpha fruticosa L., the water-holding capacity of its leaves under different water and nutrient gradients, and the nutrient losses from the substrate. The results showed that nutrient loss by runoff was significantly affected by fertilizer use and they increased with the increased application of fertilizers. The concentration of nitrogen in runoff was insignificant, the concentration of phosphorus was increased, and the runoff concentration of potassium was decreased after increasing water-retaining agent levels in the substrate. The concentration of nutrients in runoff from rainfall generally followed a trend of slight fluctuations, then a rise, and finally a decrease. The addition of F2 fertilizer produced the lowest nitrogen losses from substrate material and reduced the leaf area where the addition of phosphate fertilizer had a significant effect on crown diameter. At greater content of the water-retaining agent, the water in substrate material increased, resulting in increased water absorption by the plants and increased relative water content of leaves. Ultimately, W3F4 was the most favorable combination of water-retaining agent and fertilizer concentration for plant growth, which may be related to runoff losses. This combination provides optimal conditions under which the plant can maintain a perfect balance of nutrients and thus improve plant growth indices.

“…The increased concentrations of NH 4 + -N and NO 3 --N in the soil positively correlated with the increasing NRA in the plant (Loussaert et al, 2018). NRA increases linearly with increasing nitrate fertilization (Loussaert et al, 2018). Purbajanti et al, (2019) showed that increasing N fertilization could significantly increase NRA of peanuts compared to without N fertilization.…”

Background: Biochar has a function for soil amendment and leaching loss for nitrogen fertilizer. The objectives of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Melaleuca cajuputi biochar as a leaching loss for nitrogen fertilizer and intercropping in maize. Methods: The study was conducted from February to June 2019 in Menggoran Forest Resort, Playen District, Gunungkidul Regency, Special Province of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The experimental design was a randomized complete block design (RCBD) factorial with three replications as the response surface methodology (RSM). The treatments consisted of biochar levels made from Melaleuca cajuputi waste (0, 5, 10, 15 tons ha-1) and nitrogen fertilizer levels sourced from urea (0, 150, 300 kg ha-1) as independent variables. The observation parameters were nitrate reductase activity (NRA), total chlorophyll (TC), net photosynthesis (NP), nitrogen loss (NL), nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and seed yield per hectare (SY). Result: The RSM revealed that the optimum value of 13.290 tons ha-1 of Melaleuca cajuputi biochar (MCB) and 245.350 kg ha-1 of nitrogen fertilizer (NF) can reduced urea by 18.22%. This recommendation increased NRA, TC, NP, NL, NUE and SY by 35.28%, 19.55%, 18.09%, -46.81%, 27.96% and 61.78%, respectively, in compare to the single application of urea.
