Phosphorus hydropriming of sweet potato cuttings in relation to establishment and yield development under rainfed condition - Balatibat, Abram Noelle C.; Gonzales, Virgilio DM. (Magalang, Pampanga : Pampanga State Agricultural University, 2020)
A study was conducted to determine the establishment and yield development of sweet potato under rainfed condition in relation to phosphorus hydropriming from January 29 to April 29, 2020 at Sitio Malupa, Calumpang, Mabalacat City, Pampanga. NSIC Sp 30 and VSp 1 cuttings were used in the study with two-factor-factorial experiment in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). Factor A was the selected variety while factor B was the level of phosphorus priming. Significant difference was found between two selected varieties at 90 days after planting (DAP) recorded in VSp1. Phosphorus priming levels P1 - (positive control) - no cutting immersion, soil application of recommended P205 per hectare showed dissimilarity among other levels on number of tubers and weight of tubers per square meter at final harvest. Interaction of two factors revealed no major impact at final harvest.
