Effects of Liming and Phosphorus Fertilization on Growth, Yield and Nutrient Concentration of Papaya (Carica Papaya L.)

Two experiments, one ln the field and the other in polybags, were conducted at the MARDI research Station Serdang, to study the effects of four levels of lime and four levels of phosphorus, in factorial combination, on growth, yield and nutrient concentration of papaya cv. Eksotika on a Munchong...
