P application rate (kg ha -1 )
P application rate (kg ha -1 )
Figure 4. Effect of liming acid soil (B and D), and N and P fertilizer application on the grain yield of an
acid-sensitive soybean cultivar. (Error bars represent least significant difference of means at 95%
confidence).
Liming and increasing P rate had no significant effect on stover yield at harvesting in
both cropping seasons (p > 0.05) (Figure 5). In the limed plots, application of 30 kg N ha -1
reduced stover yield (overall average 10% and 19% in first and second season, respectively)
compared to treatments where no N was applied (Figure 5B and 5D). In the unlimed plots
there was no significant difference between application of 0 and 30 kg N ha -1 (Figure 5A and
3C).
