Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Combined urea and 1.5% ZnSO4 application can significantly enhance onion fresh weight (14176.17 and 14200.67 kg/fed) in both seasons
- Intervention effect Urea with foliar 1% ZnSO4 gave the highest zinc content in onion (44.5 and 46 ppm)
- Intervention effect Zinc applied at 1.5% with calcium nitrate was shown to increase soil nitrogen availability (54.22 and 54.77 mg/kg)
- Intervention effect Zinc application at 1.5% with calcium nitrate potentially improves onion growth and yield
