“…The amount of organic acids in food directly affects the food flavor, color, stability, and the level of quality. Fandi et al (2010) mentioned that high TA content was observed with low P concentration treatment. These results agree with Abd-Alla et al (2003), Sainju et al (1996) and Zekri and Obreza (2003), who stated that plants grown at low P concentration would produce fruits with high acidity.…”

Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) is one of the most significant trees in tropical home gardens and important genus Artocarpus. The study was conducted to determine the effects of inorganic and organic fertilizer application on the physicochemical and sensory acceptability of jackfruit and identify which nutrient management scheme would give the best postharvest quality. Each replication had four sample trees per treatment. The treatments were designated as follows: T0 – control (no fertilizer application), T1 – inorganic fertilizer (0.830 kg complete fertilizer/tree + 3.329 kg solophos phosphate/tree + 0.726 kg KCl/tree), and T2 – vermicast (75 kg/tree). Analysis of variance and treatment comparison by the least significant difference were performed using the Statistical Tool for Agriculture Research (STAR). Application of organic and inorganic fertilizer significantly influenced the pulp width and circumference and core width of jackfruit. T1 gave bigger pulp circumference (11.38 cm), longest pulp length (7.13 cm) and highest number of pulp per fruit (138.75). The color a (redness/blueness) and b (yellowness) values, pH, total soluble solids (TSS), percent titratable acidity (%TA), vitamin C and juice yield were significantly affected by the application of organic and inorganic fertilizer. The b* values indicate the yellowness of the fresh-cut jackfruit pulp. It was observed that T1 and T2 had noticeably lower +b* than those without fertilizer application as indicated by the lower intensity of yellow color. Sensorial analyses of color, aroma, sweetness, firmness, flavor, and juiciness were not significantly influenced by fertilizer application. The two nutrient management schemes revealed comparable general acceptability of jackfruit.

“…En cuanto a peso promedio de fruto, los tratamientos fueron estadísticamente iguales, a excepción de 55000 tallos.ha -1 , que fue inferior al testigo en 6%. No obstante, la tendencia general entre tratamientos es, que a medida que se incrementa la densidad de plantación el peso promedio del fruto disminuye, por ende, se sacrifica la calidad del fruto individual, lo que se debe a la competencia que se genera entre las plantas, ya que compiten por los recursos para producir fotoasimilados, efectos similares señalaron (Sánchez et al, 2017;Arguerich et al, 2013.;Fandi et al, 2007). Mientras que Grijalva et al, (2010) asientan que el peso promedio de fruto de tomate bola no se afecta con densidades de 12500-37800 plantas.ha -1 .…”

“…La densidad de plantación puede ser variable de acuerdo al sistema de producción, los híbridos o variedades utilizadas, la zona y la época del año en que se cultiven Peil y Gálvez ( 2004), factores que finalmente determinan la distribución espacial de una planta a otra y de un surco de cultivo a otro. Estudios previos relacionados con la densidad de población en tomate, señalan que a medida que esta se aumenta, se incrementa también el rendimiento por unidad de área (Fandi et al, 2007), sin embargo, se afecta significativamente el peso promedio del fruto (Sánchez et al, 2017), tendencias similares se reportan en el cultivo de pepino (López et al, 2015), en pimiento morrón (Cruz et al, 2009), en el cultivo de tomatillo (Ponce et al, 2012), y en el cultivo de estevia (Jarma et al, 2011), además de que una mayor densidad regula la competencia entre las plantas por los factores agroclimáticos, CO 2 y radiación que necesita la planta para expresar su máximo potencial de rendimiento (Fandi et al, 2007., Ucan et al, 2005.…”

“…The highest total yield might be attributed to the production of more number of pods having marketable size which is probably the function of supplied nutrients and genetic make-up of the cultivars. This might be attributed to P which promote a strong stem growth, producing large number of flower and contribute for increasing the number of fruits (Fandi et al, 2010) . In similar way, Sainju et al (2003) [48] reported that phosphorous has a positive role in stimulating healthy root growth which helps in better utilization of water and nutrients.…”

Hot pepper (Capsicum annum L.) is the most widely cultivated and economically important crop. However, its production and productivities are constrained by different factors in which Cultivar and fertilizer level are the major ones. Thus, the experiment was conducted on two hot pepper cultivars (Melka Shote and Melka Awaze) and six rates NPSZn + urea; to determine the growth and yield response of hot pepper cultivars to different levels NPSZn + urea and interaction effect of both factors. A factorial RCBD (2*6) was used for the experiment and each treatment was replicated thrice. Growth, penological and yield data were collected and and analyzed using SAS version 9.3. ANOVA revealed that plant height, days to first harvest, total leaf area, leaf area index, number of pods plant -1 , marketable, unmarketable and total dry pod yield and pod length were significantly (p<0.05) affected by the interaction effect of cultivars and NPSZn + urea rates. The main effect of cultivars and NPSZn + urea exerted highly significant (p<0.01) and significant (p<0.05) difference on canopy diameter respectively. While days to 50% flowering was highly significantly (p<0.01) influenced by interaction effect of cultivars and NPSZn + urea. Number of primary and secondary branches were highly significantly (p<0.01) affected by the main effect of cultivars and NPSZn + urea respectively. The highest (2.24 t ha -1 ) and the lowest (1.46 t ha -1 ) total dry pod yield were obtained at the combined effect of Melka Shote with 84.5NPSZn+136.5 urea kg ha -1 and with the control respectively. It is suggested to repeat the study to come up with sound recommendation suitable for the area.
