In: Agronomy Journal v. 82, no. 2, p. 305-30990-094613Summary: Although Oxisols occupy extensive areas in the Amazon, few studies have addressed their fertilizer P requirements for sustained, long-term crop production. This field study was conducted to evaluate initial and long-term responses to P rates and placement by corn (Zea mays L.) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) when grown in annual rotation during five consecutive years in a Xanthic Hapludox (clayey, kaolinitic, isohyperthermic) near Manaus, Brazil. Effects on yields of sole broadcast P rates of 0, 22, 44, 88 and 176 kg ha-1 in split-plot combination with subplot banded P rates of 0, 11, 22 and 44 kg ha-1 were evaluated over 11 total crops. Banded P at 11 kg
