An investigation was carried out in farmers’ field in Savadatti taluk of Belgaum district on bunch feeding in banana cv. Rajapuri. Bunch fed with combination of 500 ml of cow dung slurry and 20 g of K2SO4 (T3) showed increased values bunch length (57.47 cm), internodal length (13.84 cm), bunch shape index (109.44 cm), number of hands per bunch (9.08), weight of hand (1.79 kg), finger length (15.91 cm), finger girth (12.68 cm), finger weight (141.50 g), pulp weight (75.54 g), peel weight (27.32 g), pulp to peel ratio (2.76) and bunch weight (13.20 kg) with lesser number of days (120.66) taken from shooting to harvesting, while minimum values for all these parameters were noticed in T10 (control- without bunch stalk feeding) Thus, the study clearly indicates that bunch feeding with 500 ml of cow dung slurry and 20 g of K2SO4 improves the reproductive characters, finger characters, hand characters and bunch characters of banana cv. Rajapuri (Musa AAB).
