Summary
Abstract: This long term experiment began in 1972. The experimental site is a
tropical area, with a minimum annual temperature of 5.9 deg C, maximum
annual temperature of 42.8 deg C, and mean annual rainfall of 1100 mm.
The soil is characterized as Kheri series of fine montmorillonitic
hyperthermic family of Typic Chromusterts (USDA). The soil properties
are as follows:

Layer 1 0-15cm - 10 YR 3/2 (moist) ... View entire text

Quality Width of smallest plot is 10.6 m
Length of smallest plot is 17 m

There are at least 4 replicates in the experiment. The experiment
has a randomized plot design. Bulk crop of maize fodder was grown in
2-3 seasons before laying out the experiment after selection of the
site. Based on the fertility gradient (as far as ... View entire text
