Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrient application significantly affected plant height and number of tillers per plant in rice.
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrient application significantly affected chlorophyll concentration, filled grains per panicle and grain yield in rice.
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrient application did not significantly affect 1,000-grain weight in rice.
- Intervention effect The maximum tillering plus panicle initiation treatment gave the highest mean values of the investigated traits in rice.
- Intervention effect The all-stages foliar treatment gave the highest mean values of the investigated traits in rice.
- Intervention effect The control treatment without liquid fertilizer had the lowest mean values of the investigated traits in rice.
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrients at the maximum tillering plus panicle initiation stage gave the highest chlorophyll concentrations, leaf area index and crop growth rate in the flowering stage.
- Recommendation Foliar nutrient application is most effective when applied to Sahel variety rice during two vegetative and reproductive stages.
