An experiment on the “Influence of Different Concentrations of Jeevamrutha on Growth, Yield and Quality Parameters of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.)” was conducted in Kharif season adapting Factorial randomized block design (FRBD) consisting of 10 treatments and replicated thrice during July to November 2021, in Horticulture research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P) India. Results regarding the present investigation shows that cultivation of chilli with different concentrations of Jeevamrutha found as the best option for higher productivity whereas the treatment with concentration of 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha in variety TMPH-443 that is T5 (TMPH-443 + 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha) showed the best results in terms of Plant height at 30 DAT (39.59 cm) and at last harvest (59.65 cm), Days to 50% Flowering (35.92 days), Days to First Harvest (56.03 days), Fruit Length (7.21cm), Fruit Weight (5.80 g), Fruit Girth (3.27 cm), Number of Fruits Plant-1 (78.67 fruits), Average Fruit Yield Plant-1 (0.46 kg), Fruit Yield ha-1 (5.07t), TSS (8.10°B), were observed is dark green/green in colour (133). At level T10 with same concentration in different variety (TMPH-449) showed the nearest results. Hence the T5 (TMPH-443 + 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha) is best suited for the farmers in terms of growth, yield, quality and net returns.
An experiment on the “Effect of mulching on plant growth, yield and quality of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cv. Arkakomal” was conducted during November 2021 to January 2022, in Central Horticulture Research Farm, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P) India. The results of the present investigation, regarding that cultivation of French bean with different mulching material found as the best option for higher productivity whereas the treatment with Saw dust mulch that is Treatment T6 showed the best results in terms of Days to seed germination (8.6 DAS), Plant height at 30DAS (14.8 cm), 60 DAS (2.6.6 cm), 90 DAS (32.0 cm), Number of branches plant-1 at 30 DAS (4.9), 60 DAS (9.0), 90DAS (10.3), Days to first flowering (35.7 DAS), Days to 50% Flowering (41.9 DAS), Days to first picking (55.5 DAS), Leaf Length (8.8 cm), Leaf breadth (6.6 cm), Number of pods plant-1 (21.1), Pod weight (13.5 g), Pod length (15.7 cm), Pod diameter (1.8 cm), Pod yield plant-1 (857 g), Pod yield ha-1 (5.7 t), Number of seeds pod-1 (8.2), TSS (6.2 OBrix). Hence the Treatment 6 (Saw dust mulch) was best suited for the farmers in terms of growth, yield, quality and net returns.
The study was planned to see the influence of different organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on growth, yield and quality of okra which comprised the combination of organic manures (FYM, neem cake, vermicompost) and inorganic fertilizers (viz., Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium). The experiment was laid out in RBD with 9 treatments with 3 replications. Treatments involved were T0 – 100% RDF + 20 t/ha FYM, T1 – 100% RDF + 10t vermicompost, T2 – 100% RDF + 2t neem cake, T3 –75% RDF + 25% FYM, T4 – 75% RDF + 25% vermicompost, T5 – 50% RDF + 50% neem cake, T6 –50% RDF + 50% FYM, T7 – 50% RDF + 50% vermicompost, T8 – 50% RDF +50% neem cake. The results revealed that T1 (100% through RDF + 10t vermicompost) performed the best in term in days to germination (9.20 DAS), days to emergence (19.87 DAS), days to 50% flowering (49.20 DAS), plant height (75.03 cm), days to first harvest (56 DAS), number of fruits per plant (10), fruit length for marketability (10.71 cm), average fruit weight for 10 capsule (109 g), fruit yield per plant (194.93 g), fruit yield per hectare (116.96 q/ha), total soluble solids (5.80° Brix), ascorbic acid (18.54 mg/100 g), fruit colour (138.33) and B:C ratio (2.81). Therefore, the treatment T1 (100% through RDF + 10t vermicompost) is the best when compared to all other treatments. As the highest benefit cost ratio, net return and gross return was observed in T1 (100% RDF + 10t vermicompost) i.e., (2.81), Rs. 226422 and Rs. 350880 which states that it is economically profitable compared to all other treatments.
The field experiment was carried out with title “Effect of foliar application of micronutrients on growth, yield and quality of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cv. Arka Samrat” at the Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh during the Rabi-2021-22 with a view to determine the effect of foliar application of micronutrients on tomato variety ‘Arka Samrat’ for its growth, quality and yield and to work out the economics of various treatments. Under this experiment, overall 8 treatment was taken T1 Control (water spray), T2 FeSO4 @ 0.2% spray, T3 Ca(NO3)2 @ 0.2% spray, T4 H3BO3@0.1% spray, T5 ZnSO4 @ 0.2% spray, T6 FeSO4 @ 0.2% + Ca(NO3)2 @ 0.2% + H3BO3 @ 0.1% + ZnSO4 @ 0.2% spray, T7 Ca(NO3)2 @ 0.2% + ZnSO4 @ 0.2% spray, T8 Ca(NO3)2 @ 0.2% + H3BO3@0.1% spray. From the above experimental finding it may be concluded that the treatment T6 (FeSO4 @ 0.2% + (CaNO3)-2 @ 0.2%+ H3BO3 @ 0.1% + ZnSO4 @ 0.2%) was found to be best in the terms of growth Yield and quality of tomato. While, the maximum Plant height (167.85 cm), highest No. of leaves per plant (204.33), Minimum Days to 50% flowering (37.33 DAS), Maximum No. of flower per cluster (5.12), Maximum No. of fruit per plant (60.33) and maximum Fruit set per cluster (5.06), Maximum fruit weight (94.22 g), Maximum average yield per plant (5.68 kg), Maximum average yield per plot (34.10), Maximum average yield per hectare (189.43t/ha), Maximum Total soluble solid (5.23), Maximum Ascorbic Acid (26.11).
