Abstract


This study examined the effect of potassium and magnesium fertilizer on growth and yield quality of Camellia oil tea (Camellia oleifera Abel.) in Ban Pang Mahan, Mae Fa Luang District, Chiang Rai Province. The study was based on Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) experimental design with four simulations. There were 5 treatments, comprising standard farmer practice, and various supplements, ie: the application of 15-15-15 fertilizer at the rate of 50 kg/rai (farmer practice; T1), Treatment 2-5 were applied with 15-15-15 fertilizer at the rate of 100 kg/rai, plus supplements. Treatment 2-3 involved additional application of potassium chloride and potassium sulfate fertilizer at the rate 36 kg K2O/rai; Treatment 4 comprised additional application of potassium chloride at the rate 36 kg K2O/rai with magnesium sulfate fertilizer at the rate of 10 kg/rai; Treatment 5 involved application of potassium sulfate at the rate 36 kg K2O/rai along with magnesium sulfate fertilizer at the rate of 10 kg/rai. Results showed that there were no significant differences among treatments in plant height and stem diameter at an interval of 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. The application of 15-15-15 fertilizer at the rate of 100 kg/rai together with potassium sulfate at the rate 36 kg K2O/rai and magnesium sulfate fertilizer at the rate of 10 kg/rai (i.e. T5) significantly increased fruit yield (p<0.05), weight of fresh fruit (p<0.05), dried seed (p<0.05), dried seed without husk (p<0.05) and oil contents (p<0.05). However, the application of potassium fertilizers combined with magnesium fertilizer tended to increase oil content of tea seed. Additionally, the application of 15-15-15 fertilizer at the rate of 100 kg/rai with potassium sulfate at the rate 36 kg K2O/rai significantly promoted greater concentration of nitrogen (18.4 g/kg) phosphorus (0.5 g/kg) potassium (6.1 g/kg) magnesium (2.1 g/kg) in tea leaves. The high rate of fertilization stimulated significantly higher plant nutrient concentrations. and promote higher yield of camellia oil tea.
