Abstract

The present experiment was conducted at Horticulture Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow, India during the Rabi season 2019-2020. The research work was formulated to investigate the effect of different plant spacing S1 (45x45 cm), S2 (60x45 cm) and S3 (50x45 cm) and varieties (V1; Broccoli Green, V2; Pusa KTS-1 and V3; Ganesh) on different growth, yield and quality attributes in sprouting broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica Plenck) with nine treatments which designed as FRBD design. We were examined different growth parameters (plant height, number of leaves, length of leaves (cm), days to 50% curd initiation and 50% curd maturity), yield parameters such as number of auxiliary branches in broccoli, weight of curd, as well as quality parameters like curd colour, shape of curd and curd compactness. We have found the best performance in the variety of (Pusa KTS-1) with spacing (S2; 60 x 45 cm) in the most of growth, yield and quality parameters as compared to Ganesh with (S3 50 x 45 cm) and lower recorded in the variety Green Broccoli with (S1 45 x 45 cm).
