dc.description.abstract | Comparatively, removal of NPK and other nutrient elements by hybrid varieties appears to be lesser than that of the tall varieties of coconut as revealed by the analysis of components. This is supported by the results of 15 year old manurial trial with WCT and three hybrids at CPCRI, Kasaragod. These results have shown that theoretically (M-B model) just to realize 50 per cent of maximum yields COD x WCT and WCT x COD require only 75:75:150 and 144:144:288 g N, P2O5 and K20 respectively and to obtain 87.5 per cent of the maximum yield, the fertilizer application can be tailored to two third quantity. Nutrient relationship to yield of coconut has shown good indications. Nitrogen content of all the leaf ranks (except 6) significantly related to yield in which leaf No.l was showing highest correlation. The K values of all the leaves (except No.l) are significantly related to yield. The study on chemical potential in the palm and their relationship to the yield has indicated positive correlation of leaf K and Mg with coconut yield. The D x T among the available hybrids was registered to be efficient user of nutrients in the cellular fractions of the constituents. | en_US |
