Sunflower serves as a valuable rotational crop, suitable for snack processing or sunflower seed oil extraction, proving to be a Bench lucrative cash crop.To address sunflower yield uncertainties, this study employs meta-analysis to examine the impact of fertilisation.Utilising 41 studies and 392 pairs of observations based on four criteria, we found an overall 27% increase in sunflower yield with fertiliser application.Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) individually applied raised yield by 23.37, 20.

92, and 11.63%, respectively.Combined fertilisers (NP, NK, NP, and NPK) enhanced yield by 29.69, 28.40, 17.

35, and 41.91%, respectively.Sunflower type minimally affects yield, while planting density significantly influences it.Combining local soil conditions and Batteries - Chargers environmental factors with appropriate planting densities ensures maximum sunflower yield, fostering economic benefits for farmers.This study holds constructive implications for sunflower cultivation in China, contributing to increased yield.
