Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect N, P and K fertilization raised alfalfa dry matter yield over the control.
- Intervention effect N, P and K fertilization did not change alfalfa crude protein content.
- Intervention effect Combining B, Mo and Zn with appropriately proportioned N, P and K further increased alfalfa dry matter yield.
- Intervention effect Adding B at 2.0 kg/hm~2 to NPK increased alfalfa dry matter yield by 29.0% over control.
- Intervention effect Adding Zn at 1.5 kg/hm~2 to NPK increased alfalfa dry matter yield by 25.9% over control.
- Association Micronutrient ratios influenced crude protein content across hay cuttings.
- Intervention effect Adding only Zn to NPK tended to reduce hay crude protein content.
- Intervention effect Adding only Mo to NPK tended to increase hay crude protein content.
