Fertigation is a technique of injecting fertilizers along the irrigation lines, allowing precise control moisture and application. Nowadays, main used are nitrogen potassium. Usually, an excess fertigation applied to achieve early harvest lemon fruit. However, there no literature available regarding effects on fruit quality antioxidant systems at during cold storage. Therefore, present study ai...

In the Republic of Korea, root pruning splice-grafting method is commonly used on watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) and cucumber (Cucumis sativus) seedlings to produce grafted plants. The growing medium an important factor for rooting a transplant. this study, we investigated shoot growth development in different media. ‘Shindong’ as scions were onto ‘Shingiwon’ bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) ...

A long-term experiment (2013 to 2017) of treated sewage effluent (TSE) levels via fertigation in a humid tropical region was installed Jaboticabal, state São Paulo, Southeast Brazil, evaluate the impact TSE on soil fertility and potential for salinization heavy metal contamination an Oxisol. The area cultivated with Urochloa brizantha under application four at irrigation depth (0, 11, 60, 100% ...

Kiwifruit requires a high quantity of nutrients that must be supplied through fertilization to obtain an optimum yield on a sustainable basis. This research was conducted to evaluate different fertilization methods including broadcast application (as control), deep placement of the fertilizer and fertigation, alone or in combination with foliar application and their effects on the yield, leaf m...

ABSTRACT Adequate potassium and calcium nutrition is a strategy to reduce salt stress on tomatoes, as it reduces nutritional imbalance in plants. With the objective of evaluating tomato production using irrigation with saline waters fertigation different potassium-calcium proportions, an experiment was carried out protected environment Mossoró, RN, Brazil. The experimental design used randomize...
