Abstract:
Present investigation was conducted during Rabi season 2022-23 at farm of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, (Raipur) under department of vegetable science, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, Chhattisgarh to study the “Studies on effect of different plant growth regulators on growth and yield of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) in Chhattisgarh plains”. The field experiment was conducted in randomized block design with three replications, consisting a control and nine treatments of three plant growth regulators i.e., GA₃ @ 10, 20 and 30 ppm, NAA @ 10, 20 and 30 ppm and IBA @ 10, 20 and 30 ppm as foliar application at 10, 30, 60 DAS. The results showed that the application of GA₃ @ 30 ppm gave maximum plant height (73.35 cm), maximum number of leaves (17.53), length of root (35.25 cm), diameter of root (5.53 cm), fresh weight of root (226.33 g) and root yield plot^{-1 (}38.13 kg), root yield ha^-1 (27.23 t).
