Influence on Growth, Yield Attributes and Yield of Bt Cottonby Soil and Foliar Application of Nutrients

Abstract

Field experiment was conducted at cotton breeding station, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore in a sandy clay loam soil during 2009-2010 to study the effect of soil and foliar application of nutrients to maximize the seed Bt cotton yield under irrigated condition. Taller plants, higher number of symbodial branches, dry matter production, better yield attributes like number of bolls and boll weight were associated with soil application of 150 per cent RDF combined with foliar application of TNAU MN mixture. Application of 150 per cent RDF combined with TNAU MN mixture recorded 26 per cent higher seed cotton yield as compared to 100 per cent RDF.

Keywords: Bunny Bt, fertilizer levels, TNAU MN mixture, net return
