THE EFFECT OF NPK ON THE GROWTH, YIELD AND QUALITY OF THE APPRICOT FRUIT

Within the frames of Macedonian fruit-growing, the appricot is represented with 6% of the total number of fruit-trees, or about 15% of the number of fruit-trees all over Yugoslavia.
They can be found mainly along the Vardar.

So far, this problem has not been studied here and we wanted to see the reaction on the vegetative growth and yield of this fruit caused by fertilization with certain mineral fertilizers.

The works of BRANZANI (1961), KUZNJECOV (1968), SOLOVJEVA (1968), BAJWA and CHADHA (1968) and some others are known in the other countries.
