Abstract:

The experiment entitled “Effect of Controlled Release Fertilizer on Growth, Yield and Quality of Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria Mol.) under Prayagraj Agro-climatic Conditions” was conducted at Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj during February- June 2019. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design having 9 treatments with three replications. The results revealed that the maximum vine length (8.41 m) was recorded in treatment 7g CRF, minimum number of days taken for first female flower appearance (72.24 days) was recorded in treatment 7 g CRF, maximum number of male flowers per plant (68.08 flowers) was recorded in treatment6 g CRF, maximum number of female flowers per plant (17.55 flowers) was recorded in 7 g CRF, maximum average fruit length (38.53 cm) was recorded in 7g CRF, maximum average fruit weight (1.25 kg) was recorded in treatment 7 g CRF, maximum fruit diameter (22.88 cm) was recorded in 8 g CRF, maximum number of fruits/plant (11.49 fruits) was recorded in7 g CRF, maximum fruit yield (57.36 ton per ha) was recorded in7 g CRF, maximum total soluble solid (5.07oBrix) was recorded in7 g CRF, maximum vitamin C content (8.39 mg) was recorded in 8 g CRF, maximum cost benefit ratio 4.19, was recorded in treatment7 g CRF.
