To find out optimum spacing on growth and productivity of beet root and to standardize package of practices for beet root cultivation in Vidarbha region with monetary return a field experiment was undertaken during the winter seasons of three consecutive years. The experiment was conducted in a Randomized Block Design at the farm of Agricultural Research Station (Dr. PDKV), Yavatmal. On the basis of spacing, plants were transplanted at two row spacing viz., 30 cm and 45 cm and in row three plant to plant spacing viz., 10 cm, 20 cm and 30 cm with one separate 45 cm x 45 cm wider spacing plot with three replications. The result indicated that closer plant spacing had significantly increased plant height however, wider plant spacings significantly increased plant spread, number of leaves and weight of beet root. Further the closer plant spacing found significantly higher marketable quality beet root yield with highest net monetary returns.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
