Growth and nutrient balance of Asystasia gangetica (L.) T. Anderson as cover crop for mature oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations

ABSTRACT Nutrient recycling and mineral balance are important factors affecting nutrient budgets in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations. The nutrient budget includes processes such as plant uptake, removal by harvesting, accumulation or storage in the standing plant, and recycling through...
