Effect of Directly-Applied and Residual Boron on Nutrition in French Bean-Cabbage Cropping Sequence under Alfisol

Effects of directly-applied-to-the-soil and residual boron (B) in soil were assessed in French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) - cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) cropping sequence and cycle under Alfisol, with either low or adequate hot-water-soluble boron (HWS-B) content. The experiments f...

The experiments focussed on effects of various levels of applied B on leaf tissue B and crop yield, HWS-B content in the year of B application, and in subsequent years.
