The Effects of Different Fertilizers Containing Calcium on Fruit Quality of Apple cv. Red Chief
Abstract
Trial was carried out with 6 different issues, replicated four times, 10 trees in each replication (240 trees in total) on "Red Chief” cultivar grafted on M26 rootstock and in the full yield. Chemicals were applied with handgun sprayed. The application of chemical started after June Drop and was repeated 5 times with 21-days intervals. Starch scale test was applied on fruits collected from applications at harvest time. Yield, pomological and mineral analysis on leaf and fruit were performed and chemicals were compared with each other. Consequently, it was found that the products containing different proportions of Ca were not any significant effect on Ca content and quality of fruit in conditions conducted experiment
