EFFECT OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER SOURCES ON THE QUALITY AND MINERAL NUTRIENT COMPOSITION OF YAM

EFFECT OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER SOURCES ON THE QUALITY AND MINERAL NUTRIENT COMPOSITION OF YAM

Field experiments were carried out to evaluate the effects of nitrogen fertilizer sources on quality and mineral nutrient composition of white yam (Dioscorea rotundata). Three rates of nitrogen; 0, 80 and 160 kg N/ha were applied in the forms of ammonium sulphate (AS) calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN)...
