Study details
- Date: June 12, 2011 – October 3, 2011
- Location: Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China
- Soil: Cinnamon soil, loam, 20.3 g/kg organic materials, 1.86 g/kg total nitrogen, 70 mg/kg available phosphor, 110 g/kg available potassium, pH = 8.1
- Crop variety: Jundan 20
- Fertilizers: Water soluble particles with B ≥10%, Zn ≥10%, 400 g/mu was spread in the soil when the maize seeds were sowed together with routine fertilization
- Trial design: 2 treatments, 4 replications, plot area of 20 m2
Results
