Description |
A field experiment was conducted during the kharif season of 2010-11 in farmer’s field at Bankapur village in Shiggaon taluka of Haveri district to investigate the “effect of foliar feeding of water soluble fertilizers with iron and boron on yield and quality of red chillies in a Vertisol of Northern Karnataka”. The design adopted was RBD with nine treatments and three replications. The treatment that received two sprays of 19:19:19 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%) at 60 and 90 DAT (T8) recorded highest yield which was on par with treatments T9 and T6 that received two sprays of 10:26:26 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%) and 19:19:19 (1%) + Borax (0.5%) at 60 and 90 DAT respectively. The total dry matter production, number of fruits per plant and 100 fruit weight were maximum in the treatment receiving 19:19:19 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%) at 60 and 90 DAT. Application of two sprays of 19:19:19 (1%) at 60 and 90 DAT recorded maximum ascorbic acid content in green chilli fruits. Highest colour value in red fruits, per cent oleoresin and lowest per cent discoloured fruits were observed in the treatment that received two sprays of 10:26:26 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%). The highest uptake of N, P, K and Fe were recorded in the treatment that received two sprays of 19:19:19 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%) at 60 and 90 DAT. Non-significant difference existed between different treatments with respect to available N, P, B as well as DTPA extractable micronutrients in soil after the harvest of chilli. The highest available K2O recorded in the treatment that received, 100:50:50 N, P2O5, K2O kg/ha + FYM (25 t/ha) + (water spray at 60 and 90 DAT). Application of 19:19:19 (1%) + Fe-EDTA + Borax (each 0.5%) at 60 and 90 DAT has resulted in highest B:C ratio (2.17) in chilli. |
