The current study was carried out to examine the effect of transplanting date on growth and fruit yield of tomato during rabi, 2016. The field experiment was conducted at Ponnaniyar, Trichy, Tamil Nadu. The experimental setup included a factorial randomized block design with three replications. The treatments comprised of four transplanting (22nd, 24th, 26th and 28th Meteorological Standard Week), and three N doses [RDN-75kg ha-1, RDN (-25%) and RDN (+25%)]. The experimental results showed that different planting dates showed significant influence on growth and reproductive characters of tomato including fruit yield. The first transplanting date, resulted in improvement of all the attributes including fruit yield per hectare compared to 2nd transplanting date. Therefore, it is suggested that earlier transplanting produced higher fruit yield of tomato.
