Response of Mung Bean Varieties (Vigna radiata L.) to Application Rates and Methods of Blended NPS Fertilizer at Humbo

Table 2

Interaction effects of NPS fertilizer rates with varieties on days to 50% flowering (DF), days to 90% physiological maturity (DM), plant height (PH), number of branches (NB), leaf area (LA), and leaf area indices (LAI).
