EFFECT OF INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT ON YIELD AND QUALITY OF CAULIFLOWER (BRASSICA OLERACEA VAR. BOTRYTIS L.)

Abstract

The present experiment was carried out with cauliflower cv. Poosi in a randomized block design with three replications. The experiment comprised of 15 different combinations of five different sources of nutrients including organic, inorganic and bio fertilizers alone and in combinations which were applied following the proper procedures as per treatment. The effect of different treatments were observed and noted that maximum plant height (66.75), plant spread (58.64), curd diameter(16.09), depth of curd (11.76), curd volume (702.00), weight of curd (568.00), yield per hectare (252.48) and ascorbic acid (63.19) was noted by application of ½ N:P:K (recommended dose)+ FYM@5t/ha + poultry manure@2t/ha+ Azospirillum (T 14 ). Hence it can be said that the application of ½ recommended dose of NPK along with FYM @5t/ha + poultry manure @2t/ha as well as seedling inoculation with Azospirillum was found to be the most effective treatment combination for getting enhanced yield and quality.
