The application of poultry manure to crops to obtain higher yields is a widely used practice in many poultry-producing regions of the United States and other parts of the world. This practice often results in the enrichment of phosphorus (P) in soils, resulting in various environmental and ecological concerns. We evaluated several diverse cowpea (Vigna unguiculata Walp.) genotypes to explore their potential for the removal of P from poultry manure-enriched soils and the soils that had not received poultry manure applications. Cowpea genotypes, including Champion and White Acre, extracted higher amounts of P compared to other genotypes under field and greenhouse conditions in both types of soils. These genotypes could play an important role in P removal from poultry manure-enriched soils. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
