Abstract:In this study, the effects of ridge height, planting depth, and presprouting soil mounding on the growth and yield of asparagus were examined using the whole harvest cultivation method for one-year-old plants. The results showed that the planting depth and soil mounding affected the yield parameters of asparagus, such as the mean spear weight and total spear number. The planting depth or soil mounding was effective in increasing the number of thick spears, and factors affecting the mean spear weight differed d… Show more
