EFFECT OF INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT ON FLOWERING CHARACTERS OF AFRICAN MARIGOLD (TAGETES ERECTA L)
Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
An Integrated Nutrient Management System (INMS) may play a vital role in sustaining both soil health and crop production on a long term basis, which may be achieved through the combined use of all possible sources of nutrition. The present investigation was carried out during Kharif season of 2009-2010 with 16 treatments in RBD replicated 2 times. The results shown that 50% RDF and rest through poultry Manure gave a significant increase in flowering characters i.e. flower bud initiation (41.17), 50% flowering (66.60), duration of flowering (60.59), No. Of flower/plant (9.97) and ultimately produce a significantly higher flower yield /plot (26.86) and per hectare (370.69 q/ha).
