7. Super phosphate is being replaced with triple super phosphate due to its higher phosphorus content for a particular crop. If 200 kg of super phosphate (20% P) was the previous application rate, how much triple super phosphate (46% P) is needed for the equivalent phosphorus application?
8. Monoammonium phosphate (MAP) is applied at a rate of 150 kg per hectare. If MAP contains 12% nitrogen (N) and 61% phosphorus pentoxide (PO), how much nitrogen and phosphorus pentoxide are applied to the field?
