Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of NPK fertilization on growth and production of ‘Altari’ radish. N, P2O5 and K2O fertilizer application rates were 5 levels (0, 50, 100, 150, 200%) by practical fertilization (N-P2O5-K2O = 113-83-73 kg ha-1), respectively. In the N treatment, yield and nitrogen use efficiency were the highest at 113 kg ha-1 fertilization, and decreased with further increases in N rate. In the P2O5 treatment, root growth, yield and phosphorus use efficiency were the highest at 83 kg ha-1 fertilization and decreased with further increases in P2O5 rate, but phosphorus recovery was the highest at 41.5 kg ha-1 fertilization. In the K2O treatment, yield and potassium use efficiency were the highest at 73 kg ha-1 fertilization and decreased with further increases in K2O rate. By the regression equation between the content of NPK fertilizer application and yield, the highest yields were obtained with the application of 140-86-87 kg ha-1 as N-P2O5-K2O, respectively.
