Abstract
The source of nutrients supplied did not influence plant growth or yield of the crop. The plots that did not receive organic manures from outside had organic carbon in soil around 0.7%. The level of nutrients supplied per palm per year [lOOg N, 40g P2O, and 14Qg K2O) can be considered adequate for the local cultivar of arecamit as indicated by the build up of P, K and organic carbon in the soil and almost uniform levels of available nitrogen in the soil around root zone.
