Abstract:
An investigation on “Effect of different levels of fertigation on quality attributes of banana (Musa paradisiaca L.) Cv. Grand Naine” was conducted at Banana Research Station, Nanded, Taluka and District Nanded, Maharashtra, during year 2018-2019. The field experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with seven treatments and three replications. The experiment consists of seven treatment combinations viz., T1 - 50% RDF through fertigation, T2 - 60% RDF through fertigation, T3 - 70% RDF through fertigation, T4 - 80% RDF through fertigation, T5 - 90% RDF through fertigation, T6 - 100% RDF through fertigation, T7 (control) - 100% RDF through Soil application. An investigation showed that the quality attributes viz., maximum weight of pulp (108.50 g), weight of peel (46.10 g), pulp to peel ratio (2.35), acidity (0.163%), reducing sugar (12.70%), non-reducing sugar (7.20%), total sugar (19.90%), and total soluble solids (23.020Brix) were recorded by treatment T6 i.e., 100% RDF through fertigation. However, minimum weight of pulp, weight of peel, pulp to peel ratio, acidity, reducing sugar, non-reducing, total sugar, and total soluble solids, recorded by treatment T7 i.e., 100% RDF through soil application (Control).
