An experiment was conducted at Horticultural College & Research Institute, Tamil. Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore to standardise the hydrophylic polymers on growth and yield of tomato. Three commercially available polymers viz. TerraCotten (TerraCottem International. Belgium). Polyvinyl alcohol (Aquatrols corp. of America, USA) and Polyacrylamide (Viterras, Germany) were chosen for the study and used as soil conditioners for temato cv.Co.3. The results indicated that TerraCottem 4.5g plant (T) improved the plant height, branches per plant, rout length, root dry weight, fruits per plant, fruit weight, yield per plant and dry matter production. The results were on par with higher doses of respective polymers.
