Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Wheat grain yield increased with K rates.
- Observation Partial budget analysis found 60 K2O kg/ha economically feasible for wheat.
- Intervention effect Apparent K recovery was highest at 30 kg/ha K2O.
- Intervention effect Agronomic use efficiency was highest at 30 kg/ha K2O.
- Observation The authors concluded K in the blended formula was insufficient for wheat yield requirements.
- Recommendation The authors recommend independent K application for Vertisols in the study area.
