Soil chemical properties,'Guanximiyou' pummelo leaf mineral nutrient status and fruit quality in the southern region of Fujian province, China
Three hundred and nineteen ,Guanximiyou, pummelo (Citrus grandis) orchards from Pinghe county, the southern region of Fujian province, China, were selected for this study. The objectives were to determine (i) the soil and leafnutrient status, (ii) the relationships between leaf mineral elements and...

The results showed that soil acidification was a major problem in these orchards, with an average pH of 4.34.

Indeed, severe nutrient imbalance existed in these orchard soils. 77.4% and 65.8% of soils were sub-optimum in exchangeable Mg and Ca, while 96.6% and 82.1% of soils were super-optimum in available S and P, respectively.
