Effect of foliar applied KNO3 on yield, quality and leaf nutrients of Carignane and Colombard wine grapes

  • Chapter
Improved Crop Quality by Nutrient Management

Part of the book series: Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences ((DPSS,volume 86))

Abstract

KNO3 foliar applications given in different doses effected the yield, 100 berry weight, TSS, acidity, pH, TSS/acidity, N and K content of leaf blade and petiole in Carignane and Colombard wine grapes. Results showed that 1 and 2 % KNO3 applications increased the yield and hundred berry weight compared to control and had positive effect on TSS. Because of leaf blights caused by 3 % KNO3 application, certain problems appeared despite an increase in yield and some other parameters according to control. Foliar KNO3 applications caused to increase N and K contents of leaf blade and petiole. It was concluded that the doses of 1 and 2 % can be suggested for agricultural practise.
