PERFORMANCE OF ORGANIC MANURES, INORGANIC FERTILIZER AND PLANT DENSITY OF YIELD AND QUALITY OF RADISH
Journal Title: International Journal of Agricultural Science and Research (IJASR) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2014-15 on sandy loam soil to “Effect of organic, inorganic fertilizers and plant densities on performance of radish (Raphanus sativas L.)”. The experiment consisted three treatment of organic manures (control, VC @ 5 t/ha and FYM @ 15 t/ha), three treatment of inorganic manures (control, 50% RDF of NPK and 100% RDF of NPK) and two treatment of plant densities (20 x 10 cm and 30 x 10 cm), thereby making eighteen treatment combinations tested in randomized block design with three replications. Results indicated that application of vermicompost @ 5 t/ha and 100% RDF of NPK significantly higher yield attributes, yield and quality of radish over control, FYM @ 15 t/ha and control, 50% RDF of NPK, respectively. The result also indicated the plant spacing 30x10 cm significantly higher the yield attributes, yield and quality of radish over plant spacing 20x10 cm. However, TSS unchanged under different organic manures and plant densities.
