Title: Balanced Fertilization for Tea Production in Yunnan (Full Issue - BC 2005, No. 2)
By: Tan Hongwei, Zhou Liuqiang, Xie Rulin, and Huang Meif | | The main reasons for low tea production in Yunnan are poor soil fertility and unbalanced fertilization. Site-specific research conducted at three plantations highlights benefits that can be expected from science-based nutrient management. |

Title: Attaining High Yield and High Quality Banana Production in Guangxi (Full Issue - BC 2004, No. 4)
By: Tan Hongwei, Zhou Liuqiang, Xie Rulin, and Huang Meifu | | Small improvements in high value plantation crop production can generate very large economic benefits to farmers. Field trials indicate that conventional nutrient management practices greatly limit the profitability of banana production systems in southwest China. Potassium (K) is a key nutrient in higher yields and quality. |

Title: Balanced Fertilization Increases Cauliflower Yield and Marketability (Full Issue - BC 2004, No. 1)
By Feng Wenqiang, Tu Shihua, Liu Yinfa, Qin Yusheng, and Liao Minglan | --------- | Potassium (K) is the main yield-limiting factor, but proper levels of magnesium (Mg) and molybdenum (Mo) significantly increased cauliflower yield, farmers’ net income, and product marketability. This technology should be extended to all vegetable growers on the Chengdu plain. |

Title:Effect of Long-Term Fertilization on Wheat-Corn-Sweet Potato Rotation in the Sichuan Basin (Southwest China)
Wei Li, Guoxue Cai, Henglin Dai, and Shihua Tu | | A cropping system-specific analysis of past and present phosphorus (P) fertilizer management practices and their impact on current soil P status and crop response to P in Guangxi Province shows that calling for reduced P application rates is clearly unjustified if sustained crop production is truly desired. |
