The experiment aimed to study the effect of drip fertigation at different levels of fertilizer dosage in both small onion (COOn5) and big onion (Agri Found Dark Red). This study concerned about the usage of low cost straight fertilizers. If there is a possibility of using easily available water soluble straight fertilizer through drip, then a drastic cut in the cost of cultivation can be achieved. Total Bulb yield and Quality were increased with the increase of N and K levels but only upto a certain level. When the fertilizer dosage exceeds high (125% of recommended dose of fertilizers) there...

Investigation was carried out in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) to develop potential F1 hybrids with high yield and quality parameters. In a full diallel crossing involving ten parents, a total of ninety F1 crosses were obtained and evaluated with their parents in two seasons for various quantitative and qualitative characters. The analysis of variance for the traits studied indicated highly significant differences existed among the parents and hybrids. Per se performance of the parents revealed as the parent Preethi is the superior for yield per plant and CO-1 for quality parameters....
