Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Zinc deficiency symptoms occurred in upper cassava leaves, especially in calcareous soils.
- Intervention effect Micronutrient rate and method did not significantly affect cassava starch content in the first experiment.
- Intervention effect The specified soil zinc and cutting-soak treatment yielded 4,579 kg/rai fresh roots in Rayoung 72.
- Intervention effect The specified soil zinc and cutting-soak treatment yielded 4,567 kg/rai fresh roots in Kasetsart 50.
- Observation The first experiment reported 27.9 percent starch content in Rayoung 72 under the specified zinc treatment.
- Observation The first experiment reported 26.6 percent starch content in Kasetsart 50 under the specified zinc treatment.
- Intervention effect Three foliar applications of 4 percent ZnSO4 7H2O at months 1, 2, and 3 gave the highest yields.
- Observation The foliar zinc treatment cost 243 baht/rai and generated income of 685 bath/rai.
- Recommendation The authors recommend the foliar zinc treatment to farmers where zinc deficiency is a serious cassava problem.
- Intervention effect Micronutrient treatments had no effect on fresh root yield in the third experiment.
- Intervention effect Micronutrient treatments had no effect on starch content in the third experiment.
- Association Rayoung 72 had a higher fresh-root-yield response to micronutrients than Kasetsart 50.
- Observation Magnesium deficiency symptoms appeared in lower cassava leaves in Kalasin province.
