Interpretive Summary
Nitrogen and Phosphorus Needs for Tomatoes and Green Peppers Production of processing tomatoes and green peppers may be impacted by the regulation of nutrient management, because producers use high rates of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizers. This experiment, initiated in 2002, aimed to determine the effects of N and P on yield and quality of the two crops, and on risk of nutrient losses under intensive management using drip fertigation.
Nitrogen and Phosphorus Needs for Tomatoes and Green Peppers, 2004. Processing tomatoes and green peppers are examples of high-value food crops whose production may be impacted by the regulation of nutrient management. This experiment, initiated in 2002, aimed to determine the effects of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) on yield and quality of the two crops, and on risk of nutrient losses. Drip fertigation was used for intensive management.
