Study of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and quality of radish (Raphanus sativus L.)

Abstract

The field experiment was conducted during the rabi season of the year 2019-20 at Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University, College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, Telangana to evaluate “study of integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and quality of radish (Raphanus sativus L.)’’The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with seven different levels of treatment of integrated nutrients and three cultivars replication thrice. Results revealed that yield parameters significantly affected with the application of varying levels of integrated nutrients as well as cultivars. Among the treatmentroot yield per ha (3.65), dry weight root of plant (121.67g), fresh weight of plant (318g), harvesting index (7.5), b:c ratio (1.17)was recorded at RDF (90:50:90) kg ha1 + farm yard manures (5t/ha) + verimicompost (3t/ha)+ Arka microbial Constrioum (17kg/ha) was cultivar Japanese white.
