Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Increasing nitrogen rates increased peach canopy area.
- Intervention effect Use of nitrification inhibitor increased peach canopy area.
- Intervention effect Nitrification inhibitor increased nitrogen content of peach leaves and fruits.
- Association Peach yield varied with nitrogen dose and timing.
- Observation Applying 50 kg N ha-1 plus inhibitor during fruit growth phase I gave the highest yield in 2015.
- Observation The high yield treatment produced fruit diameter above 65 mm.
- Observation Trees receiving the lower nitrogen dose showed negative visual effects.
- Observation Inhibitor treatments produced visibly darker leaves.
- Recommendation The authors proposed inhibitor use to minimize fertilizer use and environmental impact.
