In order to investigate the effect of integrated nutrient management on growth and yield components in Cauliflower, Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L., cv. Pusa snowball- 16, an experiment was conducted using Randomized Block Design with two replications. The experiment comprised of 14 different treatment combinations comprising of different sources of nutrients including organic, inorganic and bio-fertilizers. The growth parameters like height of plant (12.10, 23.50 cm), number of leaves per plant (9.10, 14.40) and diameter of stem (1.20, 2.10 cm) at 40 and 60 DAT respectively, the days required for curd initiation (62.00 days), days required for curd maturity (85.70 days) and staying period of curd (9.50 days) were observed maximum in treatment combination 75 % RDF + FYM + Azotobacter + Azospirillum (T6). The yield parameters like weight of curd per plot (17.50 kg/plot) and yield per hectare (180.04 q/ha) which was increased 44.10 per cent over RDF. From the studies it can be inferred that the application of 75 % RDF + FYM along with Azospirillum and Azotobactor was found to be the most effective treatment combination for getting enhanced growth and yield in cauliflower.

This study was carried out at Subarna Agro-Based Initiative’s (SABI) field, Noakhali, Bangladesh during the period of Rabi Season, 2018. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the growth and yield performances of okra in different types of organic fertilizers and to identify the possible fertilizer treatment which enhances both growth and yield of okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Monech] .BARI Okra-1 was taken for the study. A Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) was used and there were 4 treatments namely; Farm Yard Manure (T1), Vermi-Compost (T2), FYM + Vermi-Compost (T3) and Integrated Nutrient Management (T4) were replicated three times. Plant height (cm), number of leaves, total flower, total number of fruits, fruit length (cm) and fruit weight (g) data were taken as parameters on the growth and yield of the plant. Though fruit weight was observed higher for the effect of T3 (72.78 g) but in case of Integrated Nutrient Management (T4) the other characters such as plant height, number of leaves, total flowers, total number of fruits, fruit length were observed higher. The T4 showed a comparatively better result of growth and yield than other treatments. This study clearly indicated that Integrated Nutrient Management which contains the micronutrients with minimum inorganic and organic manure may be a potential source for better growth and high yield in okra.

Background: Potato seed production with aeroponic technology can produce a large number of seeds, besides that it is also healthy because it uses plant seeds from tissue culture. However, how the quality of aeroponic seeds produced to become the next seed (growth capacity) has not been studied and scientifically informed. This research aimed to obtain the effect of aeroponic seed yields from the low and high plains based on their size on the growth and yield into advanced seeds. Potato seeds used were from the highland and lowland using aeroponic technology. Methods: This research was conducted in the highland (1000 m above sea level) from April to July 2017. Seeds were classified as S ≤ 1 mg, 1 ≤ Md ≤ 10 g and L ≥ 10 g. This research used a randomized block design with seven repetitions. The tried factors were as follows: 1. The origin of aeroponic seeds (A): A1 (lowland), A2 (highland); 2. The size of aeroponic seeds (U): U1 (S), U2 (M), U3 (L). Plant growth parameters included plant height, number of leaves and number of tubers. Result: The data obtained were analyzed using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% level. Seeds of aeroponic yields of various sizes that are planted using drip irrigation have the potential to become advanced seeds. The L-size aeroponic seeds from the lowland produced an average of 5.9 tubers with an average weight of 68.4 g.
