Potassium and magnesium fertilizers on banana in Uganda: yields, weevil damage, foliar nutrient status, and DRIS analysis
Low soil fertility and pest pressure are two causes of the decline in banana (Musa AAA) production in central Uganda. Foliar analysis by the Diagnosis and Recommendation Integrated System (DRIS) pinpoints K and Mg as the most limiting nutrients. This study tested the effects of K and Mg additions on...
