application varied. Medicinal crops like C. roseus showed<br />
response to as low as 20 kg K2O per hectare and on the<br />
other hand, ginger yield could be raised by applying 150<br />
kg K2O per ha -1 . Studies indicates that N, P and K<br />
nutrients applied in some definite combinations caused<br />
increase in yields rather than supplying either of the<br />
major nutrients alone.<br />
