Abstract

The field experiment was conducted at the Horticulture Research farm of Mansarovar Global University Sehore Madhya Pradesh, during the year 2022-23 and 2023-24. to study the effect of integrated nutri­ent management on growth, yield and quality of onion cv. Agri found Dark Red under MP region. The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications. The maximum plant height (42.24 cm), number of leaves (9.05), doubling (15.52), bolting (13.52), yield per plot(4.45kg), were recorded under T9-(50%RDF+50% poultry manure) treatments. Application of T9-(50%RDF+50% poultry manure) may be considered as best treatment followed by treatment T7-50%RDF+50% FYM and T5-Poultrymanure@ 10MT/ha in terms of all growth and yield characters.
