SODIUM CHLORIDE NUTRITION IN COCONUT

Abstract

                                Field experiment was conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Aliyarnagar during 1989-1994 to study the effect of sodium chloride (Nacl) application to coconut. The results revealed that application of Nacle 1 kg/tree/year along with recommended dose of NPK, significantly influenced the growth and nut characters and nut yield of coconut. There was no residual sodium available in the soil to cause sodium toxicity after application.

Key words : Coconut, Common Salt, Quality Features, Residual Toxicity
