Abstract:
A field experiment was undertaken during Rabi season, 2021-22 to study the effect different levels of soil applied nitrogen (0, 60, 80 and 100 kg N ha-1) and foliar application of calcium nitrate (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%) on growth and yield of the radish (Raphanus sativus L.) leaves at Central Experiment Station, Pangari Block, Wakawali, Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli, Dist. Ratnagiri in factorial randomized block design. The highest dose of nitrogen (100 kg N ha-1) as well as the lowest concentration of calcium nitrate recorded the significantly highest growth and yield parameters viz., number of leaves, height of the plant, fresh weight of leaves, leaf yield and dry weight of leaves. Thus, application of nitrogen @ 100 kg N ha-1 along with foliar application of 0.5% calcium nitrate spray significantly increased the height of the plant (45.81 cm), fresh weight of leaves (59.51 g plant-1) and leaf yield (67.44 q ha-1) in lateritic soil of Konkan.
