| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation entitled “Influence of NPK Doses on Cut Flower Production of Statice (LimoniumsinuatumL.)” was carried out to find out the optimum dose of NPK fertilizers for enhancing the quality of cut flower production of Statice. The experiment was conducted at the Experimental Farm, Division of Floriculture and Landscaping, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, Chatha during 2022-2023. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD) which comprised of three replications and twelve treatments viz., T1 = 100 :100 :100 kg/ha NPK ; T2 = 100:75:50 kg/ha NPK ; T3 = 100:50:25 kg/ha NPK ; T4 = 150:125:75 kg/ha NPK ; T5 = 150:75:50 kg/ha NPK ; T6 = 150N :50 P :25K kg/ha NPK ; T7 = 200:125:75 kg/ha NPK) ; T8 = 200:75:50 kg/ha NPK ; T9 = 200:50:25 kg/ha NPK ; T10= 250:125:75 kg/ha NPK; T11= 250:75:50 kg/ha NPK; T12= 250:50P:25 kg/ha NPK. The results revealed that application of NPK @ 150:125:75 kg/ha (T4) was found to be superior in terms of plant height (95.40cm), number of leaves per plant (160.93), spike length (83.53cm), number of spikes per plant (20.13), number of flower bunches/spike (44.27) and fresh weight of flower (52.33 g) which was found to be at par withtreatment T7 (200:125:75 kg/ha NPK) in terms of plant height, number of leaves, spike length, number of spikes/plant and number of flower bunches/spike. However, days taken for spike emergence (81.53 days), first flowering (113 days) and spike harvest (140.80 days) were recorded earliest when T3 (100:50:25 kg/ha NPK) was applied. Flower longevity in field (51.10 days) and vase life (12.47 days) at ambient temperature was recorded maximum with the treatment T5 (150:75:50 kg/ha NPK). Non- significant effect with respect to plant spread was recorded by application of various treatments. The economic analysis revealed highest B: C ratio (4.72) with the treatment T4 (150:125:75 kg/ha NPK) which was closely followed by treatment T7 (4.66) and T10.(4.64).It can be concluded from the experiment that application of treatment T4 (150:125:75 kg/ha NPK) can be recommended for better performance of statice as well as for earning maximum economics returns under Jammu conditions. | |
