Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
The experiment was carried out at Department of Fruit science, Sector 70, University of Horticultural Sciences, Udyanagiri, Bagalkot, during the year 2015-2016 to evaluate the effect of organic and inorganic mulching materials on growth and yield of pomegranate cv. Bhagwa. Different mulching materials i.e., T1-Black polythene mulch (100 microns), T2-Silver polythene mulch (100 microns), T3-White polythene mulch (100 microns), T4-Paddy straw mulch (6" thickness), T5-Sugarcane trash mulch (6" thickness), T6-Maize stover mulch (6" thickness) and T7-Control (without mulch). In mulching, the treatment T1 i.e., plants under black polythene was found to be effective to improve the growth and yield of pomegranate cv. Bhagwa.
