Table 1 Estimated biomass yields of Narcissus pseudonarcissus (cv. Carlton) plus corresponding galanthamine yields during the first (2016) and second (2017) harvest years (where Daff/full = compound fertiliser applied at a rate of 50 kgN/ha, 25 kgP/ha and 25 kgK/ha; Daff/half = compound fertiliser applied at a rate of 25 kg N/ha, 12.5 kg P/ha and 12.5 kg K/ha).
