“…Results from field trials in Ethiopian soils showed positive crop responses to K application. For example, coffee yield increased from 1 038 kg ha −1 in the control without K to 1 311 kg ha −1 when K was applied at 62 kg ha −1 in Jimma (Melke and Ittana, 2015). Haile and Boke (2011) also reported that increasing the level of K application to 150 kg ha −1 increased tuber yield from 18 t ha −1 in the control (no application) to 53 t ha −1 .…”

“…Ethiopia holds a unique position in the world as C. arabica L. has its primary centre of diversity (Melke and Ittana, 2015). And the present study on the effect of soil nutrient ratios on coffee quality has wider importance since the natural coffee forests of Ethiopia is a birthplace of wild Arabica coffee, and the information obtained from this study can be used as a model for simulating suitable soil conditions such as nutrient balances for improving coffee quality and for expanding commercial production of Arabica coffee in other parts of the country or elsewhere.…”

“…Mineral nutrients are essential for plant growth and development through the incorporation of these mineral nutrients into organic substances such as pigments, enzyme cofactors, lipids, nucleic acids, and amino acids (Taiz and Zeiger, 2002). And hence nutrients influence the chemical composition and the sensory quality of plant products (Wiesler, 2012;Melke and Ittana, 2015). Nutrients are accumulated by the fruit during its development, and coffee fruits/beans are strong sinks for minerals and carbohydrates (Covre et al, 2016), which affect it quality.…”
