STUDIES ON INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT AND BIOFERTILIZERS ON ROWTH AND YIELD OF RED CABBAGE (BRASSICA OLERACEA VAR. CAPITATA F. RUBRA)

A field experiment entitled "Studies on integrated nutrient management and biofertilizers on growth and yield of red cabbage (Brassica oleracea var.Capitata f. rubra)" was conducted during the year 2023-24 at experimental field of Department of Horticulture, VNMKV, Parbhani with a view to study the integrated nutrient management on growth and yield of red cabbage.The application of 50 % RDF + 50 % VC + PSB (T9) was observed beneficial for producing better growth parameters are plant height (37.34 cm), stem height (15.15 cm), leaf area (216.35cm 2 ), number of outer leaves per plant at 60 DAT (20.21), number of leaves per head at harvest (34.74), minimum days taken for head initiation (33.74 days) and minimum days taken for head maturity (67.85 days), yield parameters like weight of head (1126.31g), yield per plot (28.15 kg) and yield per ha (417.15q/ha).
