The results of 2 years measurement for reservoir inflow and outflow indicated that runoff generated during rainy season was sufficient to produce necessary water for irrigating 900 planted fruit trees during successive dry seasons. The last experiment reported here is about a 40 m2 roof area which was connected to a plastic tank for runoff measurement. ...
During boll filling, the earlier cultivar accumulated more dry matter and K in fruit than the later cultivar, and accumulated them faster in 2 of 3 yr. Higher K fertility shifted the partitioning of dry matter and K to vegetative organs relative to fruit. The proportion of plant K in fruit exceeded the proportion ...
