Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect The combined RDF-plus-gypsum treatment significantly increased plant height, dry matter production and leaf area index of groundnut.
- Intervention effect The treatment significantly increased the number of flowers, pegs and pods per plant.
- Intervention effect The treatment significantly increased kernels per pod.
- Intervention effect The treatment recorded higher pod yield (2100 and 2031 kg/ha).
- Intervention effect The treatment recorded higher haulm yield (5097 and 4952 kg/ha).
- Mechanism Timely gypsum application is said to supply adequate calcium and sulphur at peg formation and pod development and to cause micro acidification of soil that slightly lowers pH and raises nutrient availability.
- Recommendation The nutrient accumulation analysis can be used for fertilizer supply during critical stages.
