The present experiment was conducted at Betelvine Research Centre, Islampur, Nalanda under AICRP on MAPs and Betel vine project during three consecutive years 2010-11 to 2012-13 with four plant density treatments (T1-1.25, T2-1.50, T3-1.75 and T4- 2.0 Lakh Vine ha-1). Experimental result showed that all the plant population treatments had a significant effect on growth and yield of Magahi Pan during all the three consecutive years of the experimentation. The plant population density of 1.50 Lakh Vine /ha exhibited higher no. of branches per vine (14.70 vine-1), maximum vine elongation (10.03 cm/month) and more fresh weight of leaves (219.79 g/100 leaves) though number of leaves per hectare was obtained with higher plant population of 1.75 and 2.0 Lakh vine /ha but fresh weight was reduced as a result of reduction in leaf size due to dense population. However, plant density of 1.5 Lakh Vine/ha resulted in the significant effect on marketable leaf yield (22.05 Lakh/ha) with a lower incidence of Phytophthora foot rot disease (8.62%) in comparison to higher plant density treatment and farmers practice.
