Abstract: | Summary The problem of the nutrition of the banana plant and the limitations of traditional field fertilizer trials are described. Complementary studies of total uptake are valuable and have been carried out at various sites in the Eastern Caribbean. In this paper, dry-matter production at different stages of growth of Robusta bananas is presented. Differences in pattern are related to site factors. Distribution and redistribution of dry matter amongst the various plant organs are given for the different stages of growth. Calculations of fresh and dry matter for a field production of 25 and 50 tonnes per ha have been made. re]19720703 |
