Abstract

A field trial was conducted with seven levels of N viz. 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800g nitrogen per tree to find out the impact of N levels on the nutrient status of the various organs of plum tree. Increased N rate improved the N content of all tissue analysed, whereas the P and K content of all organs decreased with increased N application, except in case of stone, where the P content was not influenced significantly by increase in N application.
