Effect of nitrogen and sulfur on yield and yield attributing characters of onion (Allium cepa L.).

摘要

An experiment was conducted on onion cv Nasik Red with the levels of N 80 and 120 kg/ha and S 30, 45 and 60 kg/ha. The maximum plant height, length of leaves, number of leaves and diameter of bulb were recorded with the level of both N and S (N₁₂₀ S₄₅). The same combination of nutrient also showed pronounced effect on yield of bulb/plot Maximum diameter of bulb and fresh weight of bulb were observed in S₃ N₂ and S₃ N₁ treatments respectively. Thus, application of 120 kg N and 45 kg sulfur/ha may be adopted for obtaining higher yield of onion.
