    Notes: Summary Field studies were conducted over two seasons to examine the effect of Leucaena leucocephala as a green manure on the N uptake and yield of rice grown under lowland conditions. The treatments were 0, 4, 8, and 12t Leucaena ha-1 with 0,44, and 88 kg N ha-1 as urea in a factorial combination. N uptake was evaluated at maximum tillering, panicle initiation, and harvest. The incorporation of Leucaena increased N uptake throughout the vegetative period in both seasons, irrespective of the mineral-N level. At all levels of N, the grain yield increased significantly following the incorporation of Leucaena, and in both seasons the Leucaena treatment of 8 t ha-1 was almost as effective as the highest mineral-N application.

    Notes: Abstract The release of non-exchangeable (fixed) NH 4 + and the importance of exchangeable NH 4 + at transplanting (initial exchangeable NH 4 + ) for rice (Oryza sativa L.) growth was studied in representative lowland rice soils of the Philippines. The experiments showed that initial exchangeable ammonium behaved like fertilizer N and thus may serve as a valuable guideline for nitrogen fertilizer application rates when calculated on a hectare basis. By using the15N tracer technique it was found that nonexchangeable ammonium in soil may contribute to the nitrogen supplying capacity of lowland rice soils. Fixation and release of NH 4 + seem to be more dependent on the form of clay minerals than on clay content. In soils rich in vermiculite non-exchangeable ammonium should be considered together with other available N sources such as exchangeable ammonium for N fertilizer recommendations for lowland rice.
