Experiment Title Effect of foliar application of organic liquids on growth, yield and quality of knol-khol
Research Type Departmental Research
Experiment Background Knol-khol (Brassica oleracea var.gongylodes L.) is an important member of Cruciferae. Knol-khol (Brassica oleracea var.gongylodes L.) is a winter season crop and is originated from the coastal countries of Mediterranean region. It has been under cultivation by Romans since 600 B.C. (Bose, 2001). In India, the cultivation of knol-khol is popular in Kashmir, West Bengal and some parts of South India. It is commonly grown in Northern India and also in some parts of Rajasthan. Vegetable production needs proper strategies to ensure round the year availability to the increasing population at reasonable prices besides safeguarding the interest to the farmers. The indiscriminate use of the chemical fertilizers has simultaneously resulted in many problems. Hence, approach of liquid organic plant nutrient system aims at sustaining productivity with minimum deleterious effects of chemicals on soil health, environment & human health as well.
