EFFECT OF INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT (INM) ON GROWTH, YIELD AND QUALITY OF ACID LIME (Citrus aurantifolia SWINGLE) CV. KAGZI
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 51
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study the “Effect of integrated nutrient management (INM) on growth, yield and quality of acid lime cv. Kagzi†during the year 2012-13 at Horticultural Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with nine treatments. The growth parameters of acid lime viz., tree height, East-West canopy spread (m), North- South canopy spread (m), days to fruit set and days to fruit maturity gave non-significant responses. Whereas, yield attributing characters like fruit volume (53.87 cc), fruit weight (53.20 g), fruit diameter (4.52 cm) and fruit yield per tree (46.92 kg) as well as quality attributing characters like total soluble solids (8.85 °Brix.) and ascorbic acid content (29.63 mg/100g juice) and minimum acidity (7.32 %) were recorded significantly highest value with the application of 75% RDF + Vermicompost 9 kg/tree + AAU PGPR Consortium 3.5 ml/tree in treatment T7.
