New fertilizers boost Camellia oleifera oil yield by 39%
Different fertilizers were tested on Camellia oleifera to see how they affected growth and oil output. Special fertilizer had the biggest impact on increasing oil yield, followed by organic fertilizer. Organic fertilizer helped fruit size and crown width. Compound fertilizer and CK were best for height increase. CK and compound fertilizer caused excessive fall shoot growth. Chicken manure helped fruit size and reduced fruit drop. For the best oil yield, pick Camellia treated with compound or special fertilizer when fully mature.
