Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was carried out during 2023-24 at Horticultural Research Station, Dr. Y.S.R. Horticultural University, Venkataramannagudem, West Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh to study the impact of different seasons on the yield characteristics of Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) germplasm accessions.The study employed a randomized block design with two replications evaluating yield traits such as leaf area, basal leaf area, fresh weight of leaves, dry weight of leaves, fresh herbage yield and dry herbage yield.APBm-6 showed highest basal leaf area during kharif season and APBm-10 showed highest during rabi and APBm-22 showed highest during summer season.APBm-14 showed highest leaf area, fresh weight of leaves, dry weight of leaves, fresh herbage yield and dry herbage yield during kharif and rabi season.APBm-5 showed highest leaf area, fresh weight of leaves, dry weight of leaves, fresh herbage yield and dry herbage yield during summer.Results revealed that kharif season consistently outperformed both rabi and summer seasons exhibiting significantly superior yield characteristics across the evaluated variables.
