Abstract:
The research work entitled “Effects of Micronutrients Application on Growth, Yield and Storage Quality of Garlic (Allium sativum L.)” was conducted at Farm of STRU, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani, Maharashtra, during rabi 2019-2020 season. The experiment was laid out in RBD with four replications & five treatments of micronutrients i.e., T0 – Control, T1 – Soil application of ZnSO4 @ 10 kg/ha at planting, T2 – Foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5% at 45, 60 and 75 DAP, T3 – Soil application of borax @ 10 kg/ha at planting and T4 – Foliar application of boron @ 0.25% at 45, 60 and 75 DAP.
The research work entitled “Effects of Micronutrients Application on Growth, Yield and Storage Quality of Garlic (Allium sativum L.)” was conducted at Farm of STRU, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani, Maharashtra, during rabi 2019-2020 season. The experiment was laid out in RBD with four replications & five treatments of micronutrients i.e., T0 – Control, T1 – Soil application of ZnSO4 @ 10 kg/ha at planting, T2 – Foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 0.5% at 45, 60 and 75 DAP, T3 – Soil application of borax @ 10 kg/ha at planting and T4 – Foliar application of boron @ 0.25% at 45, 60 and 75 DAP.
Treatment T2 exhibited maximum growth parameters like plant height (54.78 cm) at 60 DAP and (61.30 cm) at 75 DAP, number of leaves (10.35) at 60 DAP and (12.6) at 75 DAP, plant fresh weight (27.38 gm) at 60 DAP & (52.17 gm) at 75 DAP, plant dry weight (5.50 gm) at 60 DAP and (9.20 gm) at 75 DAP and chlorophyll values of SPAD meter (66.37) at 60 DAP and (61.97) at 75 DAP followed by T1. Yield parameters like bulb diameter (5.20 cm), number of cloves/bulbs (19.41), bulb weight (33.63 gm), clove diameter (1.34 cm), clove length (3.06 cm), clove weight (3.54 gm), yield per plot (32.63 kg) and yield per hectare (129.10 q) were found significant in T2.The maximum ascorbic acid (10.92 mg/100 g) and Minimum storage loss also found in treatment T2 but the days required for maturity was not influenced by micronutrients application.
