Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect For November and December plantings, 150 kg N per ha maximized carrot yield.
- Intervention effect For the January planting, 180 kg N per ha was sufficient for carrot yield.
- Intervention effect Total alcohol-soluble sugar concentration in Choctaw carrots was maximized at 140 kg N per ha.
- Intervention effect Sugar concentration of Scarlet Nantes carrot roots was not affected by N fertilization.
- Intervention effect Carrot root carotenoid concentration was maximized at 160 kg N per ha.
- Association N fertilization rates that maximized carrot root yield also maximized carrot quality.
