dc.descriptionThe present investigation was carried out at the Vegetable Research Farm, Department of Vegetable Science, College of Horticulture and Forestry, CAU, Pasighat, Arunachal Pradesh, during the year 2021-22.The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomised Block Design with 12 treatments and replicated thrice.en_US
dc.description.abstractThe treatment details of the present experiments were T1 (D1C0 1st sowing on 1.10 2021 + zero cutting), T2 (D1C1 1st sowing on 1.10 2021 + One cutting), T3 (D1C2 1st sowing on 1.10 2021 + Two cutting), T4 (D1C3 1st sowing on 1.10 2021 + Three cutting), T5 (D2C0 2nd sowing on 15.10 2021 + Zero cutting),T6 (D2C1 2nd sowing on 15.10 2021+ One cutting), T7 (D2C2 2nd sowing on 15.10 2021+ Two cutting), T8 (D2C3 2nd sowing on 15.10 2021+ Three cutting), T9 (D3C0 3rd sowing on 30.10 2021+ Zero cutting), T¬10 (D3C1 3rd sowing on 30.10 2021+ One cutting), T11 (D3C2 3rd sowing on 30.10 2021+ Two cutting), T12 (D3C3 3rd sowing on 30.10 2021+ Three cutting). The leaf cutting was done at 30, 45 and 60 DAS for C1, C2 and C3 respectively and the final harvesting carried out on 90DAS. The analysis of variance showed that there was significant difference among the different date of sowing and number of leaf cutting on growth, yield and quality parameters of palak. The experimental results revealed that T5 (D2C0 2nd sowing on 15.10 2021 + Zero cutting) exhibited maximum values for all of the growth parameters viz., plant height (32.23 cm), number of branches(9.67), number of leaves (20.40), length of leaves (12.22 cm), length of the petiole (11.47 cm), leaf area (50.90 cm2)and leaf area index (1.13). The treatment T8 (D2C3) exhibited maximum values for yield parameters viz., green leaf yield per plot (12.41 kg) and green leaf yield per hectare (310.17q). Quality parameters viz. Chlorophyll (1.18 mg/g) and carotenoids (1.09 mg/100g) was recorded maximum in T9 (D3C0). The result showed that the plants sown on 15 October 2021 exhibited maximum yield for all most all the growth and yield parameters while plants sown on 30 October 2021 showed highest values for quality parameters. Among the number of leaf cuttings, C0 showed maximum values for all the growth and yield parameters while C3 exhibited superior results for yield parameters. Studies on diseases viz., percent disease incidence in palak field was recorded. The results of this study revealed that palak crop was infested by Fusarium wilt. Based on the experimental results, percent disease incidence is more on D1 (01.10.2021) and least PDI was observed among plants sown on D3 (30.10.2021).en_US
