Sugarcane nutrition under organomineral fertilizer, phosphate‐solubilizing bacteria, and reduced phosphate doses

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Sugarcane phosphorus (P) availability is limited in tropical soils, requiring strategies to improve fertilizer efficiency. This study evaluated Bacillus velezensis UFV 3918 (Bv) in combination with an organomineral fertilizer (OF) at reduced monoammonium phosphate (MAP) doses. It showed that Bv + OF + 1/3 MAP achieved soil and plant P levels comparable

Anaerobic/Aerobic Pretreatment of Sugarcane Mill Wastewater for Application of Drip Irrigation

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1991
Because of inappropriate management of sugarcane mill wastewater in Hawaii, odor problems and handicaps to wastewater reuse for drip irrigation and sugarcane washing have developed. Based on the previous work on wastewater characterization and relevant literature review, a combined anaerobic (UASB) and aerobic (EAFB) treatment of supernatant of settled
