Key Findings
- The study took place at the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande and focused on West Indian cherry plants
- Proper NPK fertilization can help plants manage salt stress by balancing antioxidant enzyme activity
- The fertilization combination FC5 (100-80-100% NPK) was particularly effective in reducing the negative effects of salinity
