Abstract

SummarySeasonal fluctuations in organic nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen in the soil of the Sudan Gezira are described under conditions of extended fallowing in cotton rotations. Statistically, results show that soil organic nitrogen is independent of rotational phase. Cotton yields are not limited by the content of organic nitrogen in the soil, but by soil physical conditions which improve by extended fallowing. Evidence is presented to show that soil organic nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen in this soil do not function in close interdependence. This conclusion was drawn in other work previously published.
