Effect different nutrient compound on pumpkin msmayy (Cucurbita pepo L.) under different irrigation levels
Journal Title: Journal of Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences (JBES) - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
This experiment was carried out as factorial experiment base on CRD with three irrigation levels included and nutrient compound included control, vermicompost, urea with 3 replications. The result of present study showed that low irrigation level decreased internode and all nutrient compound enhanced internode at all irrigation levels. The highest shoot length was observed in high irrigation level combination with compost. Male and female flower were decreased in low irrigation levels and all nutrient compound increased flower at all irrigation levels. Fruit number increased by all nutrient compounds at all irrigation levels and compost application was more effective than other nutrient compound. The lowest fruit weight was in low irrigation level and all nutrient compound improved fruit weight at all irrigation level and compost application was more effective. All nutrient improved fruit diameter at all irrigation levels. Based on our result, compost application was more effective than vermicompost and urea at low, normal and high irrigation levels.
