Polyhalite as an alternate nutrient source for improving growth, yield, and nutrient use efficiency in onion and garlic

Scientific Reports
Polyhalite (POLY4), a naturally occurring multi-nutrient source with a low salt index, has potential as a replacement for muriate of potash (MOP). A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of POLY4 on the growth, yield, quality, and nutrient ...

Alterations in the Physicochemical Properties and Antioxidant Activity during Aging of Stored Raw Garlic

Foods, 2022
Garlic, a once-a-year crop, is mass-produced in a single event. Most of the garlic harvested during the year, unless consumed or processed immediately, should be stored. Stored raw garlic (SRG) can be used to make black garlic (BG) via aging, and storage
