Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 51
Abstract
The present experiment entitled “Studies on integrated nutrient management on growth, yield and quality of carrot (Daucus carota L.) cv. Pusa Rudhira†was conducted at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Applied Plant Science (Horticulture), Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow during year of 2013-14. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with twelve treatments and three replications. The treatment combinations were control, recommended dose of fertilizers (RDF), 100% Azotobacter, 100% Azospirillum, 100% PSB, 50% RDF + 50% Azotobacter, 50% RDF + 50% Azospirillum, 50% RDF + 50% PSB, 50% Azotobacter + 50% Azospirillum, 50% Azotobacter + 50% PSB, 50% PSB + 50% Azospirillum and 25% RDF+25% FYM +25% vermin-compost +25% PSB. The observations were recorded on vegetative characters, yield and physico-chemical quality of roots. From the analysis of data, it can be concluded that the application of 25% PSB + 25% Azospirillum + 25% RDF+ 25% Azotobacter (T12) increased the growth, yield and nutritional quality of carrot grown under subtropical condition.
