Online published on 30 November, 2019. Abstract The effect of different organic sources of nutrients and bio-fertilizers on productivity and quality of cabbage (var. Golden Acre) was studied in newly reclaimed land from 2008–2010. The experiment was done in the Experimental Farm of the Horticulture Department in RBD. Cabbage yield was at par under inorganic and organic fertilization, where enriched compost and biofertilizer were applied. Quality parameters viz., Ash content, ascorbic acid and minerals content were found high in all the organic treatments than the inorganic. Protein yield (1.37 g 100−1 g) was significantly higher under inorganic compared to under organic sources. Minimum physiological weight loss was in organic treatment, whereas it was recorded highest under inorganic treatment. Economics of cultivation was calculated and recorded highest (3.75) in the treatment receiving FYM (@ 10 t ha−1) and biofertilizer. Top Keywords PSB, AZB, FYM, enriched compost, optimal compost, lime mediated. Top |
