The Effect of Chemical Fertilizer Treatment on Culm Diameter, Crown Development and Plant Height of Three Varieties of Oats as Related Lodging

Résumé du livre

"One of the most important cereal crops in Eastern Canada is oats. Lodging is one of the most serious hazards which limit the amount of chemical fertilizers that may be applied to this crop. There are more than one kinds of lodging. However the type of lodging which occurs prior to maturity is the most common. It involves a leaning or bending of the culms at ground level and often an uprooting of the immature oat plant. It is most frequently encountered after heavy rain or wind storms."--
