Abstract

Though cabbage is a crop of the hills, it has been successfully grown in the plains of Madurai district in a total aren of about 2,000 acres. The crop is found to be cultivated more successfully in the Hot-Weather season from February-March than in the North-East monsoon, when the crop is very badly affected by heavy rains and pests and diseases. The main season of cultivation of cabbage is an otherwise fallow period and does not intervene with the normal systems of cultivation adopted. The yield is as much as 18,000 lb to 30,000 lb per acre of cabbage and a net income of Re. 1,220/ is obtained per acre.
