Abstract

In order to provide conducive environment for groundnut growth and pig penetration, two soil amendments methods using various levels of gypsum (0, 250, 500 and 750 kg ha <SUp>-1</SUp>) and silt (25, 50 and 75%) were applied. Results showed that days to flowering and maturity, nodules plant <SUp>-1</SUp>, pod plant <SUp>-1</SUp> grain yield (kg ha <SUp>-1</SUp>) and biomass were significantly (p < 0.01) affected by SA and GNR, while the effect on emergence m <SUp>-2</SUp> and 1000-grains weight was non significant. GNR and SA had significantly delayed flowering and maturity and significantly more nodule plant <SUp>-1</SUp>, pod plan
