Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Carrot shoots reached maximum weight by three months.
- Observation Carrot roots grew slowly during the first two months and considerably in the third and fourth months.
- Association Root and shoot dry weights were positively correlated at every sampling date in both years.
- Mechanism A large photosynthesizing apparatus was reported to cause high root yield.
- Intervention effect Placed granular NPK increased carrot yield relative to broadcast NPK.
- Intervention effect Single and split nutrient application produced no difference in yield.
- Intervention effect Irrigation decreased yield in 1985.
- Observation Yield was higher in 1986 than in 1985.
- Intervention effect At harvest, fertilization did not change carrot root dry matter content versus unfertilized treatments.
- Observation Year-to-year dry matter variation exceeded variation between fertilization practices.
- Intervention effect PK placement with N fertigation yielded higher dry matter content than NPK fertigation.
