9) OKIMI SOLOMON 12AG1144 RESEARCH WORK 2016

Abstract Increasing prices of fertilizer have made farmers turn to other sources of plant nutrients for crop cultivation. Farmers are now increasing the use of animal manure to improve soil fertility. It is not clear what ef ects these manures might have on the yield performance of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas). This study was conducted during... Continue Reading
