Effect of nitrogen and potash on yield of coriander (Var. super Midori)

Abstract

An experiment entitled “Integrated nutrient management of Coriander variety Super Midori” of Tokita seed was conducted in the Department of Vegetable Science, College of Agriculture, OUAT, Bhubaneswar during Rabi2013 - 2014 to assess the effect of nitrogen (50, 60 and 70 kg/ha), potash (50 and 60 kg/ha) in combination with FYM (20 t/ha), phosphorous (40 kg/ha) on growth, growth attributing characters of coriander leaves under two sets of experiment i.e. line sowing and broadcasting. Average no. of leaves after 30 days was observed highest in N3K2 (36.78) in line sowing and 22.20 no. in N3K2 in broadcasting. The highest yield was recorded in N3K2 (15.90 ton/ha) in line sowing and 15.72 ton/ha in N3K2 treatment in broadcasting practice.
