Other claims from this paper (3)
- Intervention effect Additional sulfur, boron, or zinc alone or with FYM and fertilizer increased onion plant height, neck diameter and bulb diameters.
- Intervention effect FYM, NPK and sulfur, with or without boron and zinc, gave maximum bulb weight.
- Association Onion dry weight, sugars, and TSS had no definite response trend to nutrient application.
