RESPONSE OF BOTTLE GOURD (LAGENARIA SICERARIA (MOL.) STANDL.) TO ORGANIC NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT

The experiment entitled, response of bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria (Mol.) Standl.) to organic nutrient management, was carried out during summer-2016 at Horticulture Instructional Farm, Department of Horticulture, Chimanbhai Patel College of Agriculture, Sardarkrushinagar Dantiwada Agricultural[r]

The present study was undertaken to find out the combined effect of organic manures and inorganic fertilizers on the growth and yield of bottle gourd.

A field experiment was established at Agricultural Research Farm of Baba Raghav Das Post Graduate College, Deoria (U.P.), to evaluate the influence of organic and inorganic fertilizers on performance of bottle gourd and plant available nutrients. The experiment comprised eleven treatments and three[r]
