Abstract:
A field experimented was conducted at Vegetable Research Farm (South Block), Department of Horticulture, Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh during winter season of 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 to study the effect of foliar application of micronutrients on curd yield and economics of cauliflower. The results reveals that the maximum curd yield of cauliflower (92.08, 99.12 and 95.60 kg plot-1 during 2018-19, 2019-20 and pooled analysis, respectively) and maximum gross returns (₹ 187600 & 208800 ha-1), net returns (₹ 134723 & 154343 ha-1) and B: C ratio of the magnitude 2.55 and 2.83 were obtained with application of (T16) Ammonium Molybdate @ 0.40% + Boron @ 0.100% which was statistically at par with (T13) Ammonium Molybdate @ 0.30% + Boron @ 0.100% and (T10) Ammonium Molybdate @ 0.20% + Boron @ 0.100% over rest of the treatments during both the years as well as pooled analysis. However, least value of curd yield, gross returns, net returns and B:C ratio were observed with (T1) control.
