An experiment was conducted to study the influence of different levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash on vegetative growth, yield and quality of phalsa (Grewia subinaequalis) during the year 2011- 2012 at the Horticulture Research Farm, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Allahabad. The results revealed that the maximum number of canes (13.41)/bush, number of sprouted shoots (22.12) per cane, number of fruiting nodes (16.95) per shoot, average number of fruits (5273.98)/ bush, fruit yield (4.42kg.)/bush, total yield (73.59 q/ha), total Sugar (10.69%) and lowest titratable acidity (2.45) were recorded in T7=100g N+50g P2O5+100g K2O/bush. Moreover the highest length of new shoots (68.56cm) /cane and TSS (22.10 0Brix) were noticed in T8=150N+100g P2O5+150g K2O/bush.

Abstract


An experiment was conducted to study the influence of different levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash on vegetative growth, yield and quality of phalsa (Grewia subinaequalis) during the year 2011- 2012 at the Horticulture Research Farm, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Allahabad. The results revealed that the maximum number of canes (13.41)/bush, number of sprouted shoots (22.12) per cane, number of fruiting nodes (16.95) per shoot, average number of fruits (5273.98)/ bush, fruit yield (4.42kg.)/bush, total yield (73.59 q/ha), total Sugar (10.69%) and lowest titratable acidity (2.45) were recorded in T7=100g N+50g P2O5+100g K2O/bush. Moreover the highest length of new shoots (68.56cm) /cane and TSS (22.10 0Brix) were noticed in T8=150N+100g P2O5+150g K2O/bush.
