Abstract

The study was carried out to evaluate the effect of different mulch materials and foliar application of micronutrients on growth and yield of sweet pepper under net house. The experiment consisted of two factors. Factor A: Three mulch materials viz., M0-No mulch (control), M2-Black polyethylene mulch and M2-Rice straw mulch and Factor B: Three foliar application of micronutrients viz., N0-control (No micronutrients), N1-Zn @0.6% as ZnSO4 and N2-B @0.6% as H3BO3. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Data were recorded on growth, yield components, yield and quality of sweet pepper and significant variation was observed for most of the studied characters. Analysis revealed that the M2N2 treatment combination appeared to be best for achieving the higher growth, fruit yield and economic benefit of sweet pepper.
