Abstract
INFLUENCE OF PLANTING METHODS AND ORGANIC
MANURE LEVELS ON PERFORMANCE OF GEL,
HERBAGE YIELD AND BIOCHEMICAL STUDIES
OF ALOE VERA (Aloe barbadensis Mill.)
IN CHHATTISGARH PLAINS : The maximum herbage and gel yields (21.11 t ha-1 and 13.09 t ha-1, respectively) were recorded with raised bed planting followed by ridge and furrow planting. Among organic manure levels, the maximum herbage yield (21.20 t ha-1) and gel yield (12.88 t ha-1) were recorded with application of vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 followed by application of vermicompost @ 2.5 t ha-1. The highest herbage (22.70 t ha-1) and gel yield (14.70 t ha-1) were recorded with the raised bed planting at same level of application vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1. The highest ash content (15.90 %), crude protein (7.25 %), crude fiber (8.90 %) and
crude fat (3.10 %) in gel were recorded with the raised bed planting was found statistically
superior over flat bed planting at the same level of application of vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1.
The highest net return (Rs. 149745 ha-1) was recorded with raised bed planting with
vermicompost @ 5 t ha-1 followed by raised bed planting with vermicompost @ 2.5 t ha-1 (Rs. 145415 ha-1).
