Abstract

Foliar analyses from October to April (the drier part of the year) showed a positive effect of an increased potash application on leaf K, and a depressing effect on leaf Mg. Both these effects were statistically insignificant just before and during the period when most of the plants started to shoot. There was no significant effect of increased N applications on leaf N, except in the early part of the rainy season. Increased K also had a significant effect on bunch weight, hand weight and the number of hands per stem.-Cameroons Develop. Corp. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
