Abstract

The present investigation was carried out during rabi season 2013-14 at the horticulture farm, S.K.N. Collage of agriculture, Jobner (Rajasthan) to study the effect of bio-organics and mineral nutrients on performance of sprouting broccoli. The experiment consisted of four levels of bio-organics (control, vermicompost @ 5 t/ha, vermicompost @ 2.5 t /ha + FYM @ 5 t/ha and vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha + FYM @ 5 t/ha + Azospirillum + PSB) and four levels of mineral nutrients (Control, Sulphur @ 40 kg/ha, Sulphur @ 40 kg/ha + Zinc @ 5 kg/ha and Sulphur @ 40 kg/ha + Zinc @ 5 kg/ha + Boron @ 1.5 kg/ha) in factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications. The application of vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha + FYM @ 5 t/ha + Azospirillum + PSB along with sulphur @ 40 kg/ha + zinc @ 5 kg/ha + boron @ 1.5 kg/ha proved to be the best treatment combination in terms of average weight of central head, average weight of secondary heads, diameter of head, total head yield, crude protin content, vitamin-C content in head and net return of sprouting broccoli. The combination produced 337.28 q/ha head yield along with net return of Rs.609982 per ha.

8 of 15 groups shown: named compounds and organisms first, then groups whose results differ (checked claim by claim), then those with positive and negative results, then the smaller groups.

Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. A paper counts as positive when any of its claims in the group is positive.
