Nutritional quality of eggplant can vary depending on the cultivation methods and treatments. The present study was aimed to assess the effect of foliar application of panchagavya on yield and quality of eggplant. The results showed increase in plant height, number of branches, number of fruits and single fruit weight in panchagavya treated plants. It was due to the increased chlorophyll concentration resulting in more photosynthetic activity. Application of panchagavya also increased the total phenolic content (15.7%), total carotenoids (24.8%), DPPH activity (51%) and ascorbic acid (1.1%) as compared to the control Not Available |
