Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fertilizer use in eucalypt plantation is now similar to some agricultural production systems. The knowledge base for nutritional diagnosis and the development of fertilizer prescriptions that optimize eucalypt production are questions that drive research. In several cases, it is soil-climate-species management specific. However, much of this research could be used in different areas and countries. This special issue focuses, not only on research results, but also methods for nutritional diagnosis and fertilizer prescriptions for Eucalyptus plantation.
