YTD Application in Tea

YTD Application in Tea

Start YTD ground application from March or April after receiving of good rain(2") from unprune young teas sections after weedicide spraying.

Always apply in Disc /Ring Manuring in Young Teas.


  • Young Tea Dose(YTD)- 10 - 15 gr./Plant/ Round X 4 Split


  • Requirement of YTD/ha. - Nos of plants/ha. X 10-15 gr. ÷ 1000 = ___kgs

  • Example -
  • =12300 x 10 gr. ÷ 1000 = 123 kgs/ Split.


  • YTD Doses per Year/ha.-

      Years  - Quantity/ ha. - Nos of Split

  1. 1st    -      400  kgs        -          4
  2. 2nd  -       800 kgs        -          4
  3. 3rd   -     1000 kgs        -          3
  4. 4th   -     1200 kgs        -          2
  5. 5th   -     1400 kgs.       -          2


  • Preparation of YTD :-
  • Ratio of Mixture - N : P : K -

  1. Mixture "C"  - 1 : 2 : 2
  2. Mixture "D" - 2 : 1 : 2
  3. Mixture "E"  - 2 : 1 : 3 (Currently using)


  • YTD preparation with mixture "E" ratio - 

  1. N - from Urea(46% N) -1 N =  2.17
  2. P  - from SSP(16% P)   - 1 N = 6.25
  3. K - from MOP(60% K) - 1 N = 1.67

Then,

  1. N with Urea = 2 x 2.17 = 4.34 kgs.
  2. P  with SSP   = 1 x 6.25 = 6.25 kgs.
  3. K with MOP = 3 x 3.17  = 5.01 kgs.

             Total                             - 15.60 kgs.


  • For 100 kgs YTD preparation =       100÷ 15.60=6.41 


  • So, requirement of Fertilizer -

  1. Urea = 4.34 x 6.41 = 27.82 kgs.
  2. SSP.  =  6.25 x 6.41 = 40.07 kgs
  3. MOP = 5.01 x 6.41 = 32.11 kgs

          Total                       -100.00 kgs
