Response of Finger Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) to Biofertilizer under different Tillage Methods
Journal Title: International Journal of Science and Innovative Research - Year 2021, Vol 2, Issue 04
Abstract
In order to improve crop productivity and profitability, practices such as tillage and fertilization are vital. The study was conducted to evaluate finger pepper as affected by bio fertilizers under different tillage methods. It was done from May to October 2020 at the BASC Palayamanan Site on San Ildefonso, Bulacan. Three commercially available bio fertilizers, Biozim, BioGroe, and Mykoplus were tested for finger pepper in the study. No-tillage, strip tillage and conventional tillage were the tillage methods adopted for this study. The experiment adopted the Split Plot Design in RCBD with four replications; the tillage was as main plots while biofertilizers as sub-plots. Findings revealed that conventionally provided the highest plant height and heavy fruit, but no-tillage obtained the highest root dry weight. BioGroe attained the earliest flowering days, highest fruit set, the highest number of fruits per plant, longest fruit length, heavy fruit weight, and highest total fruit yield. In terms of economic analysis, strip-tillage achieved a good financial attribute as a result of high net income (Php 35,895.00) and ROI (36.46%). BioGroe® influenced profitability which generated positive responses on Net Income (Php44, 134.83) and Return on Investment (41.76%). BioGroe and conventional tillage improved finger pepper productivity and profitability but a further study must be conducted to generate verifiable findings.
