Abstract:
The experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different level of nitrogen and phosphorus on growth and yield of Spinach (
Spinacea oleracea L.) cv. All Green” during Rabi season of the year 2019-2020 on experimental farm of Department of Horticulture, AKS University, Satna (M.P.). The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design comprising of 12 treatments each replicated three times. Each replication was further divided into plots and a total of 36 plots were laid out. The seeds were sown with a spacing of 20cm x 10 cm. Treatments were randomly arranged in each replication, divided into twelve plots. Application of nitrogen 80 kg/ha and phosphorus 40 kg/ha has shown the significant improvement in growth and yield parameters than other treatments. The treatment recorded the plant height, number of leaves per plant, length of leaves, Leaf width, Leaf area,
Root length, Leaf: Root ratio, Fresh weight of leaves with Yield kg /ha in spinach were found to be highest in the treatments soil application with nitrogen 80 kg/ha and phosphorus at a rate of 40 kg/ha is congruent in
rabi session.
