Abstract

The present investigation was carried out at Horticulture Farm, Department of Horticulture, Rajasthan College of Agriculture, MPUAT, Udaipur. The nine treatments for the beetroot crop were evaluated with three replications under randomized block design. Variety “Detroit dark red” of beetroot was used in this experiment. The results exhibit the significant effect of various treatments on growth, yield and quality of beetroot. The growth parameters viz., Maximum germination percentage (72.23), maximum plant height at 25 DAS, 50 DAS and at harvesting (16.00, 31.77 and 32.30 cm), respectively, Number of leave per plant (6.58, 9.23 and 13.13), respectively,leaf area (195.47 cm),root length (16.30 cm), maximum root diameter (7.32 cm), Maximum root weight (147.90 g), Maximum yield per plot (7.10 kg) maximum TSS (8.59 0Brix), highest reducing sugar content (5.23 %), highest total sugar content (7.30%), highest betanine (1.96 mg/100g).
