Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted for two years to study the performance of strawberry cv. Chandler as affected by the biological, organic and inorganic nutrient substrates under sub-tropical conditions. Integrated application of strawberry runners with bio-fertilizers, farmyard manure and NPK significantly influenced the yield and yield attributing characters, sensory attributes and benefit: cost ratio of strawberry grown under saline soils of sub-tropical conditions of Uttar Pradesh. Treatment T8 [Azotobacter (50%) + Azospirillum (50%) + NPK (50%)] was most effective for commercial cultivation with higher yield (287.0 g/plant), better fruit quality, overall acceptability by the consumers and remunerative (B:C, 4.78:1.00) to the farmers compared to control (141.57 g/plant).
