Description Field experiments were conducted for three consecutive years (1991-93) with four varieties of turmeric viz., Suvarna, Suguna, Sudarshana and Alleppey with four levels of NPK fertilizers and two levels of micro nutrients, under rainfed conditions. The variety Alleppey followed by Sudarshana and Suguna were superior with regard to yield of rhizome, curcumin recovery and economics and these were significantly increased due to application of NPK and micronutrients. NPK @ 60, 50, 120 kg ha-' with micronutrient was optimum for the varieties Suvarna, Suguna and Alleppey, whereas 50, 40,100 kg ha-' with micronutrients was optimum for Sudarshana.
