Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Zinc application had no significant effect on potato plant emergence or plant height at 30 days after planting.
- Intervention effect Potato plant height was higher in plots that received zinc than in plots without zinc application.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 6.0 kg/ha with recommended fertilizers significantly changed potato plant height at later crop stages.
- Intervention effect Tuber grades of 0-25g and 25-50g in potato were not significantly affected by zinc application doses.
- Intervention effect Medium and large size tuber yield of potato varied significantly with zinc at 6 kg/ha compared with no zinc.
- Intervention effect Marketable tuber yield of potato was 18.1% higher with zinc at 6.0 kg/ha than without zinc.
- Intervention effect Total tuber yield of potato was 11.3% higher with zinc at 4.5 kg/ha than without zinc.
- Intervention effect Total tuber yield of potato was 13.7% higher with zinc at 6.0 kg/ha than without zinc.
- Intervention effect Pooled tuber yield of potato did not vary significantly with zinc up to 3.0 kg/ha compared with no zinc.
- Intervention effect Net return from potato was highest with zinc at 6.0 kg/ha compared with no zinc, at Rs. 36.0×10^3/ha.
- Intervention effect Net benefit cost ratio of potato was highest (2.52) with zinc at 6.0 kg/ha compared with no zinc.
- Recommendation Zinc at 6.0 kg/ha with recommended NPK may be more beneficial for potato cultivation in the Eastern Indo-Gangetic Plains of India.
