Abstract

The present study was carried out to examine the impact of integrated nutrient management on vegetative parameters of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) cv. Pusa KTS-1 during the year 2017-18 at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut. Randomized block design (RBD) with three replications was used for the experimental layout. The experiment was carried out by using twelve treatments which consist of different combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers. All variable parameters regarding vegetative parameters of broccoli were significantly influenced by integrated nutrient management practices. The investigation indicated that a judicious combination of inorganic fertilizers and organic manures i.e. 80% NPK + 2 t/ha vermicompost gave the significant effect on vegetative growth attributing parameters viz., plant height (31.61 cm), number of leaves per plant (16.00), leaf length (48.00 cm), leaf width (21.66 cm), stalk diameter (4.46 cm), fresh weight (337.87 g) and dry weight (106.76 g) as compared to other treatments.
