Field experiments conducted over a 3-year period on coastal savanna ochrosols at Komenda have shown significant yield responses in plant cane between 0 and 24_3 kg P, but not between 24_3 and 48_6 kg P per hectare in the form of triple superphosphate. Increasing P levels also tended to increase the leaf P content. Phosphorus application did not have any influence on the sucrose content of cane.
