| Summary: | The results of the present study indicated that height and diameter increments of newly planted teak seedlings
were significantly affected by N and P fertilizers. Leaf weight, shoot weight, root weight and total dry matter
production showed statistically significant responses to fertilizer application at harvest, one year after planting.
Root-shoot ratio decreased as a result of fertilizer application. The present study also revealed that the
application of 300 kg/ha triple superphosphate and 200 kg/ha ammonium sulphate are required to enhance
the height and diameter growth and total plant weight of newly planted teak seedlings on Penambang soil
series. |
