Abstract

The experiment was carried out at Research Field of Horticulture Research Farm, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj (U.P.) India, during October 2022-2023 to investigate the effect of organic manures and bio capsules on growth, yield and quality of strawberry (Fragaria annanasa–Winter dawn) thirteen treatments with their combinations, replicated thrice in a Randomized Block Design. In strawberry use the application of bio-capsules and organic manures hasten early flowering along with the expanded duration of blossoming, harvesting by increasing the growth, yield and quality of strawberry. The integrated nutrient management maximized plant height (cm), number of leaves per plant, plant spread (cm), number of flowers per plant, number of fruit per plant, fruit weight (g), fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), fruit yield/ha, total soluble solids, ascorbic acid (mg/100g). The result obtained in the present investigation, thus, indicates the possibility of successful use of application of organic sources of like FYM, Vermicompost, poultry manures, goat manures along with bio capsules and it might prove to be a better option for enhancing growth, yield and quality of strawberry. It is concluded that the treatment T11 (Poultry manure (20 t/ha.) + Bio capsule (150% of optimum) was found best in terms of vegetative growth and yield characters of strawberry. The economics of the treatment T11 was found best in terms of B:C ratio 3.50 of strawberry. So, application of this organic manures and bio capsules combination can be recommended to growers after few more conjunctive trials.
