Abstract
The present investigation entitled “Studies on macro and micro nutrients on yield and quality of garlic (Allium sativum L.)” was conducted during Rabi season of 2015-16 at Horticultural Research and Training Station and KVK, Kandaghat of Dr. Yashwant Singh Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan. Ten combinations of different macro and micro nutrients were replicated thrice in the form of ten treatments in a plot having dimensions of 2.0x2.0m. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications involving a spacing of 20x10cm. The cloves of garlic variety ‘Kandaghat Selection’ were sown on 1st October, 2015. The data were recorded on weight of 100 unpeeled and peeled cloves (g), bulb yield per hectare (q), peeling index (%), dry matter content (%), oleoresin content (%) and disease severity (%). The results revealed that application of 125% of recommended dose of NPK + Zn @ 7.5kg/ha produced best results in terms of characters like weight of 100 unpeeled and peeled cloves (g), bulb yield per plot (kg) and per hectare (q), peeling index (%), dry matter content (%), oleoresin content (%) whereas, minimum values for all these characters were recorded in the absolute control. Minimum disease severity (%) was found in T10. It was concluded that application of 125% of recommended dose of NPK + Zn @ 7.5kg/ha gave better results and hence, can be recommended for harvesting maximum yield from garlic after repeating the experiment for another two years.
