Abstract:
The current research work was conducted during 2019-20 in the Department of Horticulture (Fruit and Fruit Tech.), BAC, Sabour to standardize the integrated nutrient module in cape gooseberry. From the investigation, it was observed that the vegetative and physiological growth in terms of leaf size, ratio of chlorophyll a:b of the experimental cape gooseberry plants had improved significantly by 100% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each treatment. However, the reproductive growth with respect to precocity in flowering after bud break was obtained in 60% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each treatment (15.33 days) with par value in 50% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each treatment. On the other hand, highest yield acre-1 was recorded in 90% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each treatment with par value in the module comprising 60-80% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each. The quality attributes of ripped cape gooseberry fruit in terms of sugar: acid ratio was also improved significantly in 90% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each treatment with par value in the module comprising 60-80% RDF + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 each (14.96-15.69). Hence, it can be concluded that the integrated nutrient module comprising 60% RDF of NPK + Azotobacter, PSB and KSB @ 10 g plant-1 is the best treatment to improve the production system of cape gooseberry.
