Assessing fruit quality of high density apple cv. red velox by application of different levels of N, P and K under temperate conditions of Kashmir valley

Abstract

with an objective to observe the influence of different levels and combinations of nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium on quality parameters of High Density Apple cv. Red velox. The results of the study revealed that the apple fruit quality viz., SSC, sugars, reducing and non-reducing sugars were significantly influenced with highest levels of phosphorus and potassium (i.e. P3 and K3) coupled with N2 level of nitrogen during 2017 and 2018 respectively when nutrients were applied in combination.
