Abstract

A field experiment was done on non-heading type of Chinese cabbage i.e. Pak choi (Brassica rapa sp. chinensis) on the topic the “Effect of NPK and Organic Manures on growth, yield and quality of Pak choi (Brassica rapa sp. chinensis) cv. Pusa pak choi-1 was undertaken at vegetable research farm, Department of Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology &Sciences, Prayagraj (UP) in December 2021.The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with 9 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments were T0(control), T1 (FYM @20t/ha), T2 (poultry manure@15t/ha) T3 (VC@10t/ha) T4 (FYM+PM+VC@4t/ha+2t/ha+1t/ha) T5 (75%NPK+25%FYM) T6 (75%NPK+25%VC) T7 (75%NPK+25%PM) T8 (25%NPK+25%FYM+25%VC+25%PM). Seed were sown at the spacing of 30 cm×45 cm. Result of this experiment revealed as T2 (PM@15t/ha) was found best among all treatments with respect to plant height (17.84 cm), number of leaves (11.40), T.S.S (3.690Brix), Ascorbic acid (2.28mg/100g), fibre content (.74g), yield (77.18q/ha). Similarly, Gross return (Rs.154400) recorded maximum in T2. But net return (Rs.79560) and benefit cost ratio were recorded maximum in T5 (75%FYM+25%NPK).
