Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 54
Abstract
The experiment was conducted for 02 years at the Horticultural Research Centre of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture & Technology, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh. The experiment consisted of three main plot treatments (Planting Techniques) (P1 -Narrow raised beds,P2 -Wide raised beds and P3 -Flat beds) and five sub plot treatments (Fertilizer doses/levels F1-100% RDF inorganic, F2-100% RDF FYM, F3 -50% RDF FYM+50% RDF inorganic, F4 -25% RDF FYM+ 75% RDF inorganic and F5-Control (No fertilizer). The findings of the experiment are summarized below. Among the interaction effects, wide raised beds method of planting along with integrated nutrient management produced higher bulb yield of garlic (174.83, 177.04 q ha-1) as compared to other interactions of methods of planting and nutrient management practices (120.87, 122.40 to 159.50, 161.52 qha-1). In narrow raised beds method of planting, 25% organic and 75% inorganic nutrient management produced higher bulb yield (163,93, 166.66 qha-1) as compared to either organic nutrient management (128.93, 130.56 qha-1) or inorganic nutrient management (152.94, 158.88 qha-1). In flat beds method of planting, integrated nutrient management produced more bulb yield (75.20, 76.42 qha-1) as compared to either organic nutrient management (37.83, 38.45 qha-1) or inorganic nutrient management (66.23, 67.30 qha-1).
