Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Increasing N fertilizer rate increased seed yield and oil yield of Brassica carinata up to a peak at 84 kg N per ha, then decreased them slowly.
- Intervention effect Increasing N rate linearly decreased seed oil concentration of Brassica carinata, by 0.26 g per kg per kg N ha.
- Recommendation The economic optimum N rate of Brassica carinata ranged from 60 to 81 kg N per ha, depending on N fertilizer cost and seed price.
