Summary

In experiments with the red raspberry cv "Veten", it was found that fertigation resulted in better exploitation of nitrogen than broadcasting. Fertigated plants had a higher leaf nitrogen content than those treated with nitrogen by broadcasting, and thus increased primocane height and higher yields. Higher fertilization rates increased the danger of freeze injury. A negative correlation was found between freeze tolerance and cane growth parameters and between freeze tolerance and leaf nitrogen. Other results are given.
