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.
