두물차의 수량은 관행시비 (4회 분시)에 비해 완효성 비료 9월, 3월 분시 2회 와 3월 1회 분시는 수량차가 없었으나 9월 1회 분시는 감수되었다. 관행시비에 비해 완효성비료 2회 분시가 총 질소, 총 아미노산은 많았고, tannin과 caffeine 함량은 적은 경향이었으며 엽록소, 비타민 C, 유리당 함량과 감칠맛 주성분인 theanine 함량은 차이가 없었다. 형상, 향, 맛 등 제다품질은 완효성 비료 2회 분시가 1회 분시나 관행 시비 (4회 분시)에 비해 우수하였다. 그러나 완효성 비료처리는 토양비료성분 중 질소, 인산, 칼리의 효율성을 향상시켜 차잎 수량 및 품질을 증가시킨다고 생각된다.

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate effect by split-application of slow-release fertilizer on the tea plant. The yield of the 2nd harvested tea leaves was not different to the slow-release fertilizer of two time split manuring had been doing Sep. or Mar. compared with the traditional manuring had been doing four time split manuring, but that of the slow-release fertilizer to one time split manuring in Sep. had decreased 12.5±1.5%. In case of the 2nd harvested leave, the contents of chemical components related to quality such as total nitrogen, total amino acid were somewhat higher in the slow-release fertilizer (two time split manuring) than in the traditional manuring, but those of tannin, and caffeine were low, and those of chlorophyll, vitamin C, free sugar and theanine were not different to out of treatments. In scoring test, appearance and quality of green tea were more excellence in the two time split manuring compared with one time split manuring of slow-release fertilizer and with the traditional manuring (four time split manuring). Therefore, I thought that use of slow-release fertilizer be increased yield and quality of tea leaves, and improved efficiency nature of nitrogen, phosphate and potassium out of soil fertilizer components.
