Description |
The present investigation on “Foliar application of nutrients on cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) cv. Vengurla-4 with reference to growth, yield and quality” was carried out at the Agriculture Experimental Station, Paria, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during the years 2011-12 and 2012-13. The laboratory work was carried out at Department of Agril. Chemistry and Soil Science, ASPEE College of Horticulture and Forestry and Central Laboratory, N. M. College of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari. The present experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with eleven treatments and three replications i.e. T1-19:19:19 (1%), T2-19:19:19 (2%), T3-0:52:34 (1%), T4-0:52:34 (2%), T5-13:0:45 (1%), T6-13:0:45 (2%), T7-00:00:50 (1%), T8- 00:00:50 (2%), T9- Urea (2%), T10- MgSO4 (3%), T11- Control (no spray). Recommended dose of fertilizers (40 kg FYM, 1000g N, 250g P2O5 and 250g K2O/tree/year) applied in two equal splits first in last week of May and second in first week of September. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potash applied in the form of urea, single super phosphate and muriate of potash, respectively. The observations on growth, flowering, fruiting, yield attributes and quality parameters were recorded and statistically analyzed. Looking to the economics of present investigation, the maximum net return ( 92945) and BCR (1:3.45) were obtained with urea 2% during both the years of investigation. On the basis of results obtained in present investigation, it was observed that foliar application of Urea @ 2% at flushing, flowering and fruit set resulted in higher monitory returns without affecting the fruit quality. |
