Title

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Foliar application of Cu and Zn induced early defoliation in almond nursery trees, and one spray was as effective as two.
- Intervention effect Almond trees receiving Cu were defoliated 20-30 days before controls.
- Intervention effect Defoliation of almond trees sprayed with Zn occurred 10-14 days before controls.
- Intervention effect Urea increased the efficiency of defoliation by Zn and Cu in almond trees.
- Intervention effect Almond trees receiving defoliants contained 4-26% less N than naturally defoliated controls.
- Intervention effect N reserves were higher in almond trees given urea than in controls.
