Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Shade net plus 0.75 kg/tree K2SO4 increased fruit length, diameter and weight.
- Intervention effect The 1.0 kg/tree K2SO4 rate increased total soluble solids, T.S.S. acidity and vitamin C.
- Intervention effect Open-field trees fertilized with 1.0 kg K2SO4 had increased yield per tree.
- Intervention effect Open-field trees fertilized with 1.0 kg K2SO4 had increased edible fruit proportion.
- Intervention effect The 1.0 and 0.75 kg/tree K2SO4 rates yielded convergent total sugar percentages.
- Intervention effect The 1.0 and 0.75 kg/tree K2SO4 rates yielded convergent juice anthocyanin content.
- Intervention effect Covering with net and bags plus 1.0 or 0.75 kg/tree K2SO4 was associated with the highest marketable fruit percentage.
- Intervention effect The same combined coverings and potassium had the lowest cracked fruit percentage.
- Intervention effect The same combined coverings and potassium had the lowest sunburned fruit percentage.
- Intervention effect The same combined coverings and potassium had the lowest fruit juice acidity.
- Intervention effect Leaf N, P and K contents increased with increasing K2SO4 rates.
- Intervention effect Open-field treatments produced the maximum leaf nutrient contents.
- Recommendation The authors recommend shade net plus 0.75 kg/tree K2SO4 to reduce fruit disorders and improve quality.
- Observation The authors report increased total income and net profit per feddan from the recommended approach.
