Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Fertilizer applications increased leaf tissue N, P and K levels at both sites
- Intervention effect Main and interactive effects of soil-applied N, P and K were present on stem length, stem dry weight and stem density at both sites
- Intervention effect Significant soil-applied N and K effects increased fruit set by up to 51% at the Mount Vernon site
- Intervention effect No N-P-K treatment significantly increased harvestable yield over the non-fertilized treatment at the Kemptown site
- Intervention effect The unfertilized treatment had harvestable yield up to 36% lower than other soil-applied N-P-K treatments at the Mount Vernon site
- Recommendation Monitoring leaf tissue N, P and K levels is important for wild blueberry production
