Abstract:
The present experiment was carried out during September, 2018 to March, 2019 in Research Field of Department of Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design (RBD), with twelve treatments of Micronutrients, the treatments were replicated thrice. The treatments were T₀ (Control), T₁ (Boron 0.2% + RDF), T₂ (Boron 0.4% + RDF), T₃ (Boron 0.6% + RDF), T₄ (Zinc 0.2% + RDF), T₅ (Zinc 0.4% + RDF), T₆ (Zinc 0.6% + RDF), T₇ (Iron 0.2% + RDF), T₈ (Iron 0.4% + RDF), T₉ (Iron 0.6% + RDF), T₁₀ (Iron 0.2% + Zinc 0.2% + RDF) and T₁₁ (Iron 0.2% + Zinc 0.4% + RDF). From the present investigation it is found that the treatment T₁₁ (0.2% Iron + 0.4% Zinc + RDF) found to be best in terms of plant growth and yield parameters of Jasmine. In terms of cost benefit ratio maximum Gross Return, Net Return and Cost Benefit ratio was also found in treatment T₁₁ followed by treatment T₁₀ (0.2% Iron + 0.2% Zinc + RDF) where as minimum plant growth, yield and quality attributes was recorded in treatment T₀ (Control) in all the parameters.
