Abstract:

A field experiment was conducted at Department of Vegetable Science, CoH, GKVK Campus, Bengaluru during Rabi Season of 2018-19 to study the effect of fertigation levels on growth and yield of Cabbage. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with seven treatments replicated thrice. The treatments included three different doses fertilizers (100, 75 and 50% RDF) and each doses of fertilizers was applied in 12 and 6 equal splits at 5 and 10 days intervals, respectively and they were compared with soil application of 100% RDF (150: 100: 125 kg NPK ha-1). Phosphorus was applied as basal dose through soil application whereas Nitrogen and Potassium were applied through fertigation. The result revealed that application of 100% RDF in 12 equal splits at 5 days intervals significantly recorded maximum plant height (20.53, 30.53 and 35.46 cm) and plant spread in East-West (59.33, 69.32 and 72.79 cm) and North-South (59.06, 69.06 and 72.53 cm) directions at 45 DAT, 60 DAT and at harvest, respectively. The same treatment recorded highest individual head weight (1194.23 g), head length (11.60 cm), head diameter (29.11 cm), head volume (1296.53 cc), head width (13.60 cm), yield per plot (33.00 kg) and yield per hectare (43.22 t ha-1).
