Within a column, means followed by a different letter are significantly different at the 0.05 probability level according to Tukey’s significant difference test. NHI = nitrogen harvest index; PHI = phosphorus harvest index; KHI = potassium harvest index; TNU = total aboveground N; TPU = total aboveground P; TKU = total aboveground K.
