dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted in a sandy loam soil of the Agronomic Research Station, Chalakudy, Kerala for four years from 1981 to 1985 to study the response of irrigation and mulching on tha growth and yield of pineapple. Both irrigation and mulching influenced the fruit yield significantly. The study revealed that irrigating pineapple during summer months at 0.6 IW/CPE ratio (5 cm depth of water) and mulching the crop with dry leaves @6000 kg/ha was optimum. It requires fivato six irrigations during the dry months at an interval of 22 days. | en_US |
