Medium-term effect of fertilizer, compost, and dolomite on cocoa soil and productivity in Sulawesi, Indonesia

Fungenzi, Thomas; Sakrabani, Ruben; Burgess, Paul J.; Lambert, Smilja; McMahon, Peter; Fungenzi, Thomas (Cambridge University Press, 2021-08-02)

In Indonesia, management practices that reduce soil fertility could be limiting cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) production. To address this, we investigated the effects of fertilizers and organic amendments comprising different ...
