Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Plant population and distribution significantly affected all studied traits.
- Intervention effect Spacing at 35 cm on 80 cm mastaba significantly increased leaves, foliage fresh weight and plant weight.
- Intervention effect That spacing significantly increased root weight.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen from 69 to 92 and 115 kg N/fad increased root weight, diameter and length.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen increased leaf number, foliage fresh weight and plant weight in both years.
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen decreased sucrose, TSS and purity percentages in both years.
- Recommendation The authors recommend 25 cm spacing on 80 cm mastaba with 115.0 kg N/fad to maximize root yield.
