Abstract
SummaryA field trial was laid out on full bearing ‘New Castle’ apricot trees during 1981–84 with three levels of nitrogen (200, 400, 600 g tree1) and four modes of application (soil application alone and supplemented with 1–3 urea sprays, each containing 5 1 aqueous solution of 1% urea to each tree). 400 g N, supplemented with two foliar sprays of urea, the first applied in the second week of April, when the leaves were fully expanded and the second after two weeks resulted in optimum vegetative growth, larger fruit, higher yield and improved tree N status.
