Abstract
Nitrogen is the only fertilizer applied to a substantial acreage of deciduous fruit orchards in California. Usually the first limiting nutrient in the production of those orchards is nitrogen. Only a part of the total deciduous acreage has reached a level where response to nitrogen fertilizer is obtained.
