Common letter(s) within the same column do not differ significantly at 5% level of significance (p ≤ 0.05).
Note: The five fertility levels were: Fo: No fertilizer, F1: 25% of recommended fertilizer dose, F2: 50% of recommended fertilizer dose, F3: 75% of recommended fertilizer dose, and F4: Recommended fertilizer dose.
