Abstract
Leonardite, an oxidized form of lignite obtained from coal mines, is readily available and high in humic acids (HA). It has potential as a soil amendment and may have positive effects on crop growth and yield. This greenhouse experiment evaluated the agronomic effect of leonardite on three crops: canola (Brassica napus), wheat (Triticum aestivum) and green beans (Phaseolus vulgare). The factorial design combined five rates of leonardite with five fertility treatments. The fertility treatments had a significant effect on the dry matter yield (DMY) of canola, wheat and green beans. There were also significant effects of fertility on the concentration and uptake of N, P and K by the three crops and S by canola. The application of leonardite had no significant effect on the DMY of wheat and green beans but that of canola was significantly increased. Application of 10 g of leonardite to 3 kg of soil caused a 27% increase in the DMY of canola when S was excluded from added nutrients, while 1 g of leonardite resulted in a 15% increase in yield when all nutrients were applied. In addition, uptake of S, N, P and K by canola were significantly affected by the application of leonardite. The yield response of canola was apparently due to the supply of S by leonardite with an increasing rate of leonardite supplying increasing amounts of S. This result was confirmed in a second experiment where high quantities of leonardite were applied. We concluded that leonardite increased the yield of canola by supplying S directly and by possibly facilitating the uptake of other nutrients. The lack of response of wheat and green beans to leonardite was attributed to their lack of response to S. The experiment showed beneficial effects of leonardite on canola, though high rates may be needed to exploit this benefit in field situations. Key words: Leonardite, humic acid, green house, canola, fertility

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
