Abstract

An experiment on the “Influence of Different Concentrations of Jeevamrutha on Growth, Yield and Quality Parameters of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.)”  was conducted in Kharif season adapting Factorial randomized block design (FRBD) consisting of 10 treatments and replicated thrice during July to November 2021, in Horticulture research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P) India. Results regarding  the present investigation shows that cultivation of chilli with different concentrations of Jeevamrutha found as the best option for higher productivity whereas the treatment with concentration of 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha in variety TMPH-443 that is T5 (TMPH-443 + 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha) showed the best results in terms of  Plant height at 30 DAT (39.59 cm) and at last harvest (59.65 cm), Days to 50% Flowering (35.92 days), Days to First Harvest (56.03 days), Fruit Length (7.21cm), Fruit Weight (5.80 g), Fruit Girth (3.27 cm), Number of Fruits Plant-1 (78.67 fruits), Average Fruit Yield Plant-1 (0.46 kg), Fruit Yield ha-1 (5.07t), TSS  (8.10°B), were observed is dark green/green in colour (133). At level T10 with same concentration in different variety (TMPH-449) showed the nearest results. Hence the T5 (TMPH-443 + 10% Spray of Jeevamrutha) is best suited for the farmers in terms of growth, yield, quality and net returns.

Keywords: Chilli, jeevamrutha, hybrid varieties, growth, yield and quality
