Effect of soil and foliar application of nutrients on post-harvest studies of cluster bean

Abstract

The present investigation entitled “Effect of soil and foliar application of nutrients on post-harvest studies of Cluster bean”. The experiment was conducted on the Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Gwalior (M.P.). The topography of the field was uniform with proper drainage. The experiment was laid out in the randomized block design with 10 treatments and each treatment was replicated three times. The observations were recorded on different aspects of number of pods/plant, pod length, number of seeds/pod and test weight and seed yield as well as stover yield/plant. The result of experiment revealed that the NPK (18:18:18) 1% spray at flower initiation and 10 days after 1st spray significantly improved post-harvest parameters among all the treatments.
