Abstract
The results of a field experiment conducted to evaluate the relative benefits of fractionated annual and biennial applications of fertilisers to coconut, are presented in this paper. The highest response in terms of yield of ripe nuts and copra outturn per palm was obtained when annual dose of fertilisers was applied in two splits. Effect on the yield -components, viz., production and percentage set of female flowers, and copra content of nut, is also discussed.
