Diagnostic Soil Nutrient Standards and Identification of Yield Limiting Nutrients in Onion (Allium cepa) Using DRIS

Soil samples collected from a survey of fifty onion growing fields in Karnataka were analyzed for various macro and micronutrients for establishing a data bank to develop soil nutrient norms. By using Diagnosis and Recommendation Integrated System (DRIS), the whole population was divided into two su...
