Determining the Effect of Panchgavya and Jeevamrutha on Growth and Yield Parameters of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.)

Abstract

The present investigation highlights the effect of Panchgavya and Jeevamrutha on the Growth and Yield Parameters of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) during Rabi season 2022-23 at Research Field, Department of Horticulture, Udai Pratap Autonomous College Varanasi. The field trial was conducted in RBD with thrice replication and seven treatments including control. The data observation on growth and yield attributes on Chilli at 30, 60, and 90 days after transplanting. For the observation, five plants are randomly selected from each plot. The application of (T5) 75% RDF + 4% Panchgavya + 400 litre/ha Jeevamrutha was found most significant in growth and yield attributes of green Chilli including plant height, number of leaves per plant, number of branches per plant, and fruit length, girth and fruit yield per plant and fruit weight followed by all the other treatments. The application of a combination of RDF, Panchgavya, and Jeevamrutha showed better results on the growth and yield attributes of Chilli.
