Standardizing nutritional requirement for mulberry mini clonal hedge garden (Morus sinensis)

Studies were carried out to standardize optimum nutrient requirement for mulberry (M. Sinensis) mini clonal hedge garden. Mother plants were treated with different quantities of NPK viz., (2 g, 4 g, 6 g, 8 g and 10 g/plant). Morphometric traits viz., shoot length, number of shoots per plant and number of healthy leaves produced per plant were recorded for three different growth periods viz., 7DAA, 14DAA and 21DAA and the result revealed that two treatments of NPK viz., (6 g/plant) reported superiority in all growth parameters evaluated. In other hand, over dosage of NPK treatments (10 g/plant) leads death of mother plant.
