Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Biofertilizers with half the recommended NPK dose gave soil NPK availability on par with the full dose.
- Observation The control had the lowest eggplant nutrient uptake.
- Observation Biofertilizers alone ranked next lowest for eggplant nutrient uptake.
- Recommendation The authors conclude biofertilizers can halve fertilizer dosage and reduce cultivation cost.
