Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Liquid silicon gave the highest plant emergence in spring wheat, 316–321 seedlings per 1 m2, regardless of application method.
- Intervention effect Liquid silicon gave the highest number of spikes and plant height in spring wheat.
- Intervention effect Combined application of liquid silicon gave a statistically higher yield of spring wheat, 4.97.
- Intervention effect Foliar application of liquid silicon gave a statistically higher yield of spring wheat, 4.84.
- Intervention effect The powder silicon form applied to soil and leaves was similar in effect to the liquid form for spring wheat yield, 5.35 t/ha.
- Intervention effect A liquid silicon formulation is more effective than a powder silicon formulation for spring wheat.
