Description An experiment entitled Influence of INM on growth, yield and quality of
knolkhol (Brassica oleracea L. var. gongylodes) cv. Early White Vienna under the
coastal zone of Odisha was carried out at the plot of the AIN Project of the Department of
soil science and Agricultural Chemistry, College of Agriculture, Orissa University of
Agriculture & Technology, Bhubaneswar.
The experiment comprised of 11 treatments replicated three times in a randomized
block design. Of the eleven treatments seven comprised of 100% NPK with or without
organic nutrient supplements, two treatments with 50% NPK +organic nutrient supplements,
one treatment with no nutrients (T1 control), and one treatment with only biofertilizers. The
seedlings for the experiment were transplanted on 9th November 2012 and were harvested
between 30th Dec. 2012 to 10th January 2013, as per maturity of the tubers. The data of the
trial obtained were subjected to statistical analysis and the results were documented, analysed
and presented in tabular form.
The results obtained displayed a significant positive response for all characters studied
under the eleven treatments. It was revealed from the results that the treatments with 100% NPK
application supplemented with or without organic nutrient supplements recorded significantly
higher values for all the characters studied from T1 ( control ) T9, T10 and T11which comprised of
only biofertilizer, 50 % NPK + FYM + biofertilizer and 50% NPK + vermicompost + biofertilizer
respectively. The T7 which comprised of 100% NPK (@150-38-63 Kg NPK ha-1) application
along with vermicompost (@ 2.5 t ha-1), biofertilizer @ 2 kg ha-1 each of Azotobacter, Azospirillum
and PSB) recorded significantly higher values for plant height, weight of leaves, average knob
diameter, average fresh knob weight, yield plot-1, yield ha-1, TSS, ascorbic acid content, protein
content and uptake of nutrients ( N, P, K, Ca,Mg, & S) studied. It however remained at par with the
other treatments studied in which it did not record highest values. The T7 and T6 remained at par for
almost all the characters studied. The treatment T6 had same nutrients as T7 except, FYM instead of
vermicompost. The higher values obtained under T7 & T6 which have remained at par might be due
to the better response of knolkhol to chemical fertilizers and organic nutrient supplement
combinations that might have made the nutrient uptake higher. This might have influenced the
production of higher values for the characters studied esp. increased number of leaves, leaf area
chlorophyll content and higher uptake of nutrients etc. which ultimately might have helped in better
accumulation of more stored food materials resulting in highest yield and quality of knolkhol. The
T6 proved to be most economical treatment with a benefit:cost ratio of 2.7.
