Response of Acacia nilotica to Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Waterlogged Sodic Soil

A field experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design to see the response of Acacia nilotica to nitrogen (0 and 50 g N plant^-1) and phosphorus (0 , 25 , 50 , 75 and 100g phosphorus plant^-1) in water logged sodic soil. Results indicated that increment in the height and biomass production at two and half years age of Acacia nilotica plantation was not promising to nitrogen application. The application of phosphorus however , increased the plant height and its biomass. Application of 75 g plant^-1 phosphorus , was found to be optimum dose for ,Acacia nilotica in waterlogged sodic soils.
