Abstract:
An experiment was conducted under insect proof net and open condition to assess the impact of integrated nutrient management and fertigation levels on growth parameters of papaya cv. Arka Prabhath. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications and twelve treatments. Results indicated that crop growth such as plant height, girth, number of leaves and leaf petiole length were significantly higher in treatment containing, 100% RDF through Fertigation ₊ Trichokavach (50g/plant) + Chitosan (20g/ plant)+ Seaweed extract (20g/plant)+ Penicillium pinophilum (20g/plant) + Pseudomonas putidda (4 ml/litre)+ Phosphoric acid (20 ml/ lit/ plant) + Salicylic acid (300ppm) + Power plus (5 ml/ lit) when compared to other treatments.
