  • And this is a liming material and all liming material is assigned a CCE score or a calcium carbonate equivalent, which signifies the neutralizing value that pure calcium carbonate would expect to alleviate soil pH per pound or per acre. (wsu.edu)
  • The composite seed meal formulation was as effective as soil fumigation in controlling replant disease and resulted in tree growth and yield that was equivalent to or greater than that attained in fumigated soils. (usda.gov)
  • Sterilization or fumigation of the root zone mix has not been effective in preventing or delaying fairy ring establishment. (thelawninstitute.org)
  • Soil fumigation before planting is the most effective way to treat the disease. (adama.com)
  • This difference in nematode re-establishment typically corresponded with enhanced tree growth and yield in seed meal amended soils. (usda.gov)
  • and correspondingly tree growth and yield was superior to that observed in fumigated soils. (usda.gov)
  • Soil fumigation can temporarily increase plant growth and yield. (australianpineapples.com.au)
  • We take that data and model it against other block data layers including soil type and plant available water content to better under-stand the causes of yield and fruit quality variability. (thegrapevinemagazine.net)
  • In Dokoozlian's assessment, plant water availability in the soil is typically the most significant variable driving vineyard yield and fruit quality variability. (thegrapevinemagazine.net)
  • With each increment of increase in the soil test value, the increase in yield is less (law of the minimum). (msu.edu)
  • The point where yield reaches 95 to 97 percent of maximum is referred to as the critical soil test value. (msu.edu)
