Improving soil phosphorus availability and yield of Zea mays l. using biochar and compost derived from agro-industrial wastes

open access: yesItalian Journal of Agronomy, 2019
Tropical soils such as Ultisols fix phosphorus (P) because of their characteristically high contents of aluminium and iron. Organic amendments could be used to mitigate P fixation.
