Influences of inorganic fertilizer on yield of beet root (Beta vulgaris Subsp. vulgaris L.)

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to study the during rabi season of 2020-21 at Horticulture Farm, S.K.N. College of Agriculture, Jobner (Rajasthan). The experiment consisted of twelve treatment combinations including four nitrogen levels (control, 30 kg N/ha, 60 kg N/ha & 90 kg N/ha) and three treatments of plant geometry (15 x 10 cm, 30 x 10 cm & 45 x 10 cm) were under taken in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The results of the study clearly indicated that application of 60 kg nitrogen to beetroot significantly. However, the level of 60 kg nitrogen was significantly increased Root length (15.27 cm), Root diameter (5.27 cm) Root: shoot ratio (1.05 cm2) Fresh root weight (181.73 mg/100 g), followed by 90 kg nitrogen per ha as reported as at par with N3 in beetroot.
