Abstract
Abstract Six year’s data with so-called ‘Temple’ orange (Citrus hybrid) on ‘Cleopatra’ mandarin rootstock (Citrus reticulata Blanco), show that increased rates of N and K increased fruit yield. P also increased yield. Spring vs. fall irrigation resulted in a significant increase in fruit production in 1 of 6 years, although slightly higher fruit production was observed every year with spring irrigation. Increased N rates resulted in higher leaf N and Mg but lower leaf P, K, and Ca. Increased K rates raised leaf K but lowered leaf Mg. The addition of P in the fertilizer resulted in higher leaf P and Ca but lower K and Mg contents. Spring irrigation induced lower K but higher Mg in certain years.
