Abstract

The field experiment was conducted at Horticulture Orchard, Agricultural College and Research Institute, Madurai, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University to study the effect of pre harvest chemicals on yield and post harvest quality parameters of bhendi. The bhendi plants were sprayed with chemicals individual as as well as in combination. The results revealed that the combinational effect of CaCl2 5000ppm + GA3 50 ppm + BA 50 ppm showed the highest number of pods, pod yield, shelf life, moisture content, vitamin – C and crude fibre content. But the highest plant height was recorded in plants sprayed with GA3 due to elongation of stem. The overall yield and quality aspects of bhendi has improved by the combinational effect.
