Abstract
Chlorine from 20 to 50 pounds per acre had no effect on yield or leaf-grade quality of flue-cured tobacco grown on a Fox loamy sand. Increased applications of chlorine increased the chlorine content, moisture uptake, and decreased the rate of burn of the cured leaf but had no effect on the amount of total sugars.Keywords
