Type: article
Abstract: Experiment was carried out at Horticulture Farm, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur during winter season of 2020-21 21 to evaluate the effect of organic manure on nutrient content of cabbage head. Ten treatments comprising of various combinations of organic manures was used in a randomized block design (RBD) with three replications. Recommended dose of nitrogen (RDN) 150 kg ha-1 was used. Results showed that the application of 100% RDN through enriched compost + fortified Panchagavya spray @ 4% at 10 to 20 days after transplanting and 15 days after 1st spray + fortified Jeevamrut @ 500 L ha-1 twice at 15-days interval recorded the highest protein and nutrient content i.e., Ca, P, K, Fe and Sin cabbage head which are significantly different from other treatments. Lowest values for these parameters were recorded under control, in which no manure has been applied.
