Abstract:
In order to investigate the "Effect of Integrated Nitrogen Management on the Quality Attributes of Beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) var. Crimson Globe," an experiment was carried out at the Horticultural Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand during the rabi, 2020–2021.The experiment was set up using a Randomised Block Design (RBD), which consists of three replications and ten treatments. The results as regard to quality parameters viz. total soluble solids (8.13°Brix), and total sugar (7.61%) was found to be significantly superior for treatment30 kg N/ha + 12.5 t/ha FYM + 5 t/ha Vermicompost + Seed treatment of Anubhav Bio NPK consortium (5ml/kg seed) and which was at par with treatment (T₆) 60 kg N/ha + 5 t/ha Vermicompost + 5 t/ha Castor cake + Seed treatment of Anubhav Bio NPK consortium (5ml/kg seed) and T₃ 60 kg N/ha + 5 t/ha Vermicompost + 5 t/ha Castor cake. Application of various treatments had no appreciable impact on the ascorbic acid concentration of beetroot roots.
