In a field experiment, conducted on four different soil types, trace elements cobalt, zinc, manganese, copper, sodium and molybdenum were applied by sprayer to a grass-legume sward in late September in both 1955 and 1956. Treatment differences were evaluated in terms of total dry matter production and by the chemical composition of the plant tissue. The elements applied were detectable in plant tissue, but herbage yields were not affected. Apparently the trace elements in these different soil types were in the range of sufficiency for maximum herbage production.

Maximum standing crop in an Eleocharis quadrangulata population was estimated at 881 g dry wt./m2. Net daily productivity was highest during May when about 50% of the total standing crop was produced. Net productivity for the entire period of vegetative increase, April 1 to August 4, was 7.0 g/m2 per day. The accumulation of several nutrients, especially nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium was proportionately more rapid than dry matter production during early spring growth. Net chlorophyll synthesis was also greater during early spring. Patterns of change in dry matter and chemical substances in the E. quadrangulata population were similar to those in populations of other emergent aquatic macrophytes.

SUMMARYPotassium application appeared to increase dry matter production and yield of oil palms, primarily by increasing leaf area, while nitrogen increased both leaf area and net assimilation rate. Responses to phosphorus and magnesium were harder to interpret. Production of vegetative dry matter attained a fairly constant level at the higher rates of fertilizer application, while the ratio of bunch yield to total dry matter production was little affected by fertilizer treatments. The importance of these results for oil palm breeding, and their possible value in diagnosing fertilizer requirements, are briefly discussed.
