Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Studies on performance of various cultivars of African marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) With different planting geometry on growth and yield under agro-climatic situation of Northern Bastar of Chhattisgarh” was conducted at the Instructional Farm, Singarbhat, CARS, Kanker under IGKV. The objective was to assess the performance of various cultivars of African marigold with different planting geometry under the agro-climatic situation of Northern Bastar of Chhattisgarh. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design with three replications and twelve treatments comprising three cultivars of African marigold i.e., Pusa Bahar Gainda, Pusa Basanti Gainda and Pusa Narangi Gainda with four planting geometry viz., 60 x 40 cm, 50 x 40 cm, 50 x 30 cm and 40 x 40 cm respectively. The data on number of primary branches plant-1 and secondary branches plant-1 was significantly maximum under wider spacing (60 x 40 cm) whereas, flower yield ha-1 was obtained maximum with 50 x 30 cm (V1S3) of closer spacing. In case of cultivars, Pusa Bahar Gainda recorded significantly maximum primary branches, secondary branches plant-1and flower yield ha-1(q). The treatment combination (V1S3) Pusa Bahar Gainda with 50 x 30 cm spacing gave maximum flower yield ha-1 (q ha-1).
