Abstract: In order to evaluate the influence of fertigation system and fertigation scheduling and fertigation treatment on plant growth characters of potato crop, a field experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2016-17 and 2017-18 at Vegetable Research Centre, G.B. Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar, Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand. The experimental field was laid out in Three Factorial Randomized Block Design with one additional treatment consisting of thirty seven treatment combinations with three replications. The Influence of fertigation system and fertigation scheduling and fertigation treatment on plant growth characters of Potato were studied. Growth characters like emergence per cent, plant height, fresh haulm weight, dry haulm weight, fresh root weight and dry root weight were significantly influence by fertigation system, different fertigation scheduling, different rates of fertigation treatment at 30 days after planting (DAP). Sub-surface fertigation system was found better in improving germination, plant height, fresh haulm weight, dry haulm weight, fresh root weight and dry root weight. Fertigation treatment T1 (120% of RDF) was found to be better in improving plant growth characters.
