- Design description
- The experiment field is split into 5 areas, 3 receiving N as calcium ammonium nitrate and 2 as compound NPK. Running across the 5 areas are three strips where additional superphospate is applied to calcium ammonium nitrate and compound NPK plots, and 2 strips where no additional P is applied. Plots receiving superphosphate measure 5 x 15 m and plots receiving no superphosphate are larger measuring 15 x 15m Between 2005–2008 the entire field was fertilized with calcium ammonium nitrate only, with no P and K applied.
