Abstract:
The investigation was conducted during
Rabi seasons of 2017-18 at the horticulture farm nursery, College of Agriculture, Gwalior. The study involve Sixteen treatment combinations consisting of four sulphur levels viz. S
0: Control, S
1: 20 kg S ha
-1, S
2: 40 kg S ha
-1, S
3: 60 kg S ha
-1 and four doses of Boron, i.e. B
0: Control, B
1: 0.5 kg B ha
-1, B
2: 1.0 kg B ha
-1 and B
3: 2.0 kg B ha
-1 in factorial randomized block design with three replications. The recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) adopted was 100:60: 80 kg of N: P: K ha
-1. The increasing level of sulphur and boron up to 60 kg ha
-1 and 2.0 kg B ha
-1 increased growth and bulb yield significantly over control respectively.
