Carbonate-silicate ratio for soil correction and influence on nutrition, biomass production and quality of palisade grass
Silicates can be used as soil correctives, with the advantage of being a source of silicon, a beneficial element to the grasses. However, high concentrations of silicon in the plant would affect the digestibility of the forage. To evaluate the influence of the substitution of the calcium carbonate b...
