Title StatementSoil and leaf nutrient composition in relation to yield and fiber quality of abaca (Musa textiles Nee) in different plantations in Davao
Publication, Distribution, Etc.College, Laguna University of the Philippines Los Banos 1980
Physical Description182 leaves
Summary, Etc.The study on nutritional problem of abaca in Davao was conducted to determine the relationship between soil nutrient levels and nutritional status of abaca and to identify the major nutrient factors associated with the yield and quality of abaca fiber in different soil series. Identification of significant problem indicated that a positive correlation between soil and leaf concentrations was found for calcium only. The major soil properties associated with fiber yield were Ca, Al, pH, organic matter content and percent base saturation in Tugbok series; P, Ca and Mg in Cabangan series and Al and pH in San Manuel series. The leaf nutrient factors associated with fiber yield were N in Cabangan series and K in San Manuel series. Fiber yield in Tugbok series appeared as independent of the leaf nutrient factors considered. The major soil properties significantly correlated with tensile strength were Ca, Al, pH, organic matter content, and percent base saturation in Tugbok series; N, organic matter content and percent base saturation in Cabangan series and P, pH and percent base saturation in San Manuel series. Among the leaf nutrient factors significantly associated with tensile strength were N in Tugbok series and Ca in Cabangan series. None of the leaf nutrients was found significantly correlated with tensile strength in San Manuel series
