Effect of organic and inorganic manure on vegetative parameters of Alstroemeria under protected conditions
Author(s): SA Samoon, Neelofar and Malik Asif Aziz
Abstract: An experiment entitled response of Alstroemeria to organic and inorganic fertilizers under protected conditions was conducted with three levels of nitrogen viz, 150 ppm, 200 ppm and 250 ppm /15 days interval, phosphorus two levels viz 100 kg/ha and 150kg/ha while as three levels of organic manure viz., vermicompost 2.5 t/ha, FYM 5t/ha and sheep manure 5t/ha respectively. The results revealed that various levels of Nitrogen, Phosphorous and organic manure had a significant influence on vegetative parameters. Nitrogen at 150 ppm/15 days interval recorded minimum days (103.13) for rhizome sprouting. The influence of phosphorus on various vegetative parameters was significant at 150kg/ha recording minimum (104.41) days to sprouting while as among three levels of organic manure vermicompost recorded minimum (103.9) days to sprouting. The interaction between N1P1 at 150 ppm / 15 days interval and 100 kg p/ha recorded minimum (107.79) days to sprouting. Similarly the interaction between nitrogen and organic manure had a significant influence on days taken to sprouting with N1O1 taking minimum days of 98.80. The interaction effect of P101 resulted in minimum number of days (103.07) to sprouting. However, the effect of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and organic manure and their interactions had a non-significant effect on other vegetative parameters.
