Effect of NPK on Vegetative Growth and Yield of Desiree and Kufri Sindhuri Potato / Adhikari, R.C. in Nepal Agriculture Research Journal, Vol. 9 (2009)
[article]
Title : Effect of NPK on Vegetative Growth and Yield of Desiree and Kufri Sindhuri Potato Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikari, R.C., Author Publication Date: 2009 Article on page: 61-68 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Desiree, fresh weight, Kufri Sindhuri, nutrients, tuber yield Abstract: A field experiment was carried out to assess the effect of NPK on vegetative
growth and yield of potato cultivars; Kufri Sindhuri and Desiree at different
nutrient levels (0:0:0, 50:50:50, 100:50:50, 100:75:50, 100:75:100,
100:100:100 and 150:100:100 N, P205 and k20 kg ha-1) in sandy loam soils at
Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal during 1999/2000. The experiment was laid out in a
split plot design with 4 replications. Plant height, number of stems, fresh
weight of stem and leaves were recorded at 15 days interval during crop
growth period and tuber yield at maturity stage. Kufri Sindhuri was taller
than Desiree at all the stages of plant growth. Increasing levels of NPK
increased the plant height by 15-42 percent. The levels of NPK imparted to a
significant effect on fresh weight of leaves and stems at each successive
stages of crop growth. Kufri Sindhuri responded nitrogen up to 150 kg ha-1
while Desiree yielded higher at 100:100:100 kg NPK ha-1. The yield increase
of potato tuber was associated with increase in the plantLink for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=9
