Abstract

The present investigation was carried out in the Farm Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Sangaria, Hanumangarh, Rajasthan during the month of July 2020 to March 2021. The experiment consists of 8 treatment combinations in a Randomized Block Design which are studied and replicate thrice in 5 × 5 m2 spacing. Eight treatment combinations viz., T0 Control, T1 90% RDF + 10% FYM /Tree, T2 85% RDF + 15% FYM/Tree, T3 80% RDF + 20 % FYM/Tree, T4 75% RDF + 25% FYM /Tree, T5 70% RDF + 30% FYM /Tree, T6 65% RDF + 35% FYM/Tree and T7 60% RDF + 40 % FYM/Tree were applied during the research work on Guava. The treatment was done at vegetative growth stage and harvesting stage was calculated in each treatment which were selected in each plant. From the above finding it may be concluded that treatment T1 -90% RDF + 10% FYM/Tree recorded as best treatment in terms of better growth, yield and quality of 10 year old guava under sub tropical condition. This treatment can be considered most appropriate for integrated

Conclusion

It is concluded from the experiment that treatment T1 (90% RDF +10% FYM) followed by T2 (85% RDF + 15 % FYM) was found superior in terms of growth and higher yield and quality factors. In this investigation the treatment T1 (90% RDF +10% FYM) was found suitable for cultivation of guava orchard which gives production of 92.86 kg of fruits per tree.
