The fertilizer requirements of plantains (Musa acuminata x M. balbisiana, AAB) were determined for a San Antón sandy clay (Cumulic Haplustolls), with irrigation, on the southern coast of Puerto Rico. Significant responses per plant in number of fruit and weight per bunch were obtained with 168 kg N/ha. The use of the Capó fertilizer-yield equation indicated that applications of 259 and 282 kg N/ha would be required for a maximum yield of 155,988 fruit/ha weighing 45,030 kg. Levels of N in excess of 336 kg N/ha reduced production by restricting the number and weight of bunches/ha, with 673 kg N/ha having 22.8% less bunches than with optimum N fertilizer application. Leaf-N value of 3.20% at 10 mo of age was associated with response toN ferti...
