to assess the "Effect Of Saline Irrigation Water On Growth, Nutrients Composition And Yield Of Onion (Allium Cepa L.) Varieties" during the winter, season of 2017-18. The pot experiment comprised four levels of salinity viz., <2.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 dS m -1 and five different varieties viz., V1-GJWO-3, V2-GJRO-11, V3-Talaj red, V4-Pilli patti and V5-PWF-131 in Factorial Completely Randomized Design with replicated three times. The experimental result revealed that the growth, yield and yield attribute, quality parameters, bio-chemical parameters, nutrient content and nutrient uptake were significantly influenced by the different varieties of onion. The highest plant height (49.33 cm), fresh straw yield (37.03 g), fresh weight of bulb (39.21 g), volume of bulb (25.67 cm 3 ), bulb yield (133.33 g/pot) and quality parameters viz., neck thickness and TSS among different tested varieties of onion.

An experiment was conducted on medium black calcareous soil at Junagadh (Gujarat) to evaluate FYM, biofertilizers and botanicals for organic cultivation of garlic (var. Gujarat Garlic 4) during Rabi season of 2017-18 and 2018-19. The results revealed that the growth parameters, yield attributes and yield were significantly influenced by the various organic treatments in both years and pooled results. The experimental results revealed that the application of FYM @ 10 t/ha + Panchgavya as foliar spray @ 3% at 30 and 60 DAS (T1) produced significant effect on growth parameters, yield attributes and yield obtained significantly higher bulb yield (68.04, 71.28 and 68.99 q/ha) and straw yield (8.63, 9.47 and 8.87 q/ha) in 2018, 2019 and pooled results, respectively.

Salinity is one of the most important factor limiting fruit growth and production of several horticultural crops. A pot experiment was undertaken during Rabi 2017-18 at Department of Agricultural Chemistry & Soil Science, JAU, Junagadh in order to investigate the effect of different levels of saline irrigation water on yield and yield attributing characters of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) varieties. The experiment consists of four salinity levels viz., < 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 dS m -1 with four different varieties viz.,V1: GT-6, V2: JT-3, V3: AT-3 and V4: DVRT-2 of tomato. Results reported that saline water treatments significantly reduced the vegetative growth parameters and hence total yield of tomato. The yield and yield attributing characters were also significantly influenced by different tested varieties of tomato and recorded highest yield with V1 (GT-6) variety.
