Verbatim
e0“Fertilization of garlic with 120 kg N, 76 kg P2O5 and 96 kg K2O/ fed recorded maximum values of weight loss percentage in bulbs during storage in comparison with the treatment of rizobacterian and phosphorein mixture and/or every one separately in combination with 60 kg N, 38 kgP2O5 and 48 kg K2O/ fed which gave the lowest values in this respect.”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Rizobacterin and phosphorein, together or separately with half-rate NPK, significantly increased the studied garlic traits relative to untreated plants in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The combined biofertilizers and half-rate NPK gave the best garlic growth parameters in both seasons.
- Intervention effect The combined biofertilizers and half-rate NPK gave the best garlic plant mineral contents.
- Intervention effect The combined biofertilizers and half-rate NPK gave the best garlic bulb yield and yield components.
- Intervention effect The combined biofertilizers and half-rate NPK gave the best garlic bulb quality measures.
- Recommendation The authors recommend half-rate NPK plus the biofertilizer mixture to increase garlic yield and quality while halving NPK use.
