A total of eleven turmeric cultivars/lines were evaluated for their performance in the partial shade of areca nut canopy and open condition under the Sub Himalayan Terai region of West Bengal. The cultivar Suguna gave the highest yield (29.04t/ha) followed by CLS-2A (27.41t/ha) and Kasturi (26.22t/ha) in areca shade and the cultivar Sudarsana produced maximum fresh rhizomes (44.53t/ha) followed by Suguna (38.53 t/ha) and Kasturi (38.05 t/ha) in open condition. Sudarsana & Kasturi also performed well in areca shade but the yield was observed low than the open condition the mean internodal distance and yield per plant were responsible for the higher yield. This is supported by moderately higher numbers of secondary fingers and mother rhizome weight. The cultivar Suguna is also found to be tolerant to Cercospora leaf spot under the partial shade of areca canopy. Not Available |
