Summary

The yield data obtained from fertilizer experiments conducted at 195 locations for three years were examined to study the relations between yield, response to nitrogen and phosphorus, soil test values, and number of irrigations, using multiple regression technique. Irrigation accounted for 20–36 per cent of the yield variation, whereas soil factors did not show appreciable effects. Nitrogen response was influenced by irrigation, while some soil factors affected response to phosphorus.
