Abstract
Ara, N., Bashar, M.K., Begum, S. and Kakon, S.S. 2007. Effect of Spacing and Stem Pruning on the Growth and Yield of Tomato. Int. J. Sustain. Crop Prod. 2(3): 35-39 The effect of spacing (40 and 50cm) and stem pruning (one stem, two stem, three stem and no pruning) on the yield was evaluated on indeterminate type BARI Tomato-6 variety at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Ishurdi, Pabna during 2005-2006. Wider spacing (50cm) gave the higher marketable yield (82.39 t/ha) and closer spacing gave the lowest marketable yield (68.32 t/ha) and number of fruits/plant. Two stem pruning yielded the highest marketable yield (87.18 t/ha) and one stem pruning gave the lowest number of fruits/plant. But stem pruning also yielded the lowest marketable weight of fruits/plant. Wider spacing coupled with two stem pruning showed superior interaction (97.08 t/ha) to others.
