 The current issue of Better Crops with Plant Food magazine (2006, No. 4) contains a wide range of topics, from fertilizer tonnage reporting in the U.S. to mulberry fertilization for silkworms in China to soil test-based fertilization for tomato production in India. This 32-page edition also features the results of a crop nutrient deficiency photo contest just completed. Other articles of interest discuss prediction of P runoff from calcareous soils, organic crop management and soil P, K losses on volcanic soils, and balancing nutrient use for tobacco in China.
