Long-term Organic Production Systems in Northern Highbush Blueberry: Placing Weed Mat over Existing Organic Mulches and Changing to Nitrogen-only Fertilizer Sources Increased Yield

Long-term Organic Production Systems in Northern Highbush Blueberry: Placing Weed Mat over Existing Organic Mulches and Changing to Nitrogen-only Fertilizer Sources Increased Yield

In long-lived organic blueberry production systems, nutrient imbalances caused by some fertilization and mulching practices can reduce plant growth and yield. The ability to balance nutrient levels and thus improve productivity over time was evaluated in a mature planting of ‘Duke’ and ‘Liberty’ tha...
