Description Experiment entitled “Effect of soil test based INM practices on the
performance of Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.)” was carried out at farmer’s field of
Neeralakatti village, Dharwad (Karnataka) during kharif 2015. The experiment
involving twelve different treatment combinations with water spray as control was
laid out in randomized block design with factorial concept and replicated thrice to
assess the performance of chilli for vegetative, earliness, yield and quality parameters.
Analysis of variance revealed significant differences between the treatment
combinations. INM found better for growth parameters (plant height, stem thickness,
number of primary branches and number of secondary branches per plant), earliness
(days to first and 50 % flowering) as well as yield parameters (number of flower and
fruits per plant, per cent fruit set, average fruit weight, yield per plant and yield per
plot) as reflected in vigorous plant and higher yield. Further INM was followed by
inorganic practice. For quality traits like ascorbic acid content, per cent dry matter and
chlorophyll content in fruits were found superior with organic practice, which was
followed by INM practice.
