Potential Use of Sea Water for Pineapple Production in BRIS Soil.
An experiment was conducted to determine the response of four sea water treatments on an improved pineapple genotype “N- 36” grown in Beach Ridges Interspersed with Swales (BRIS) soil. Sea water treatments were prepared by substitution of K with Na ions i.e., 0% (in control), 15%, 30% and 60% of r...

| description | An experiment was conducted to determine the response of four sea water treatments on an improved pineapple genotype “N-
36” grown in Beach Ridges Interspersed with Swales (BRIS) soil. Sea water treatments were prepared by substitution of K
with Na ions i.e., 0% (in control), 15%, 30% and 60% of required K doses were replaced by Na ions from sea water.
Treatment effects were non-significant up to 30% sodium replacement from sea water. Na replacement (60%) showed
significant impact on different growth parameters at different stages (8-10 months after planting). However, the fruit yield, the
final target of crop harvest was not adversely affected at significance level. Therefore, sea water irrigation can easily fulfil
60% dose of potassium fertilizer by sodium ions for the production of pineapple in BRIS soil. |
