- Intervention effect Urea-N treatments increased leaf N by 8-57% in avocado trees compared with the non-urea sprayed control.
- Intervention effect Urea-N treatments produced no differences in leaf N concentration among treatments sampled 28 days after application.
- Intervention effect Foliar urea increased fruit yield of the 'Booth7' avocado cultivar.
- Intervention effect Boron applied at 1 and 2 lb per acre increased leaf and inflorescence B concentration compared with a non-sprayed control.
