Studies on Yield and Yield Components of Spray Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) cv. Amal under Various Sources of Nitrogen
An investigation was undertaken to study the yield and yield components of spray-type chrysanthemum cv. Amal under variaous sources of nitrogen. The treatments considered different levels (100%, 75%, 50% or 25%) of four sources of nitrogen viz., urea, calcium ammonium nitrate, mustard cake and neem...
