Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Performance of Cauliflower varieties under different spacings in Chhattisgarh plain”
was carried out in Horticulture Research Farm of Barrister Thakur Chhedilal College of Agriculture with the aim of investigate to performance of different cauliflower varieties under different spacing. The experiment had two factors Factor A: Plant spacing (S
1:60x30 cm, S
2:60x45 cm, S
3:60x60 cm) and Factor B: Varieties (V
1: Welcome Kartiki, V
2: Welcome Kartiki Pusa Dipali, V3: Sitara, V4: Karishma plus). The experiment was laid out in Factorial RBD with 3 replications and 12 treatment combinations. Maximum diameter of curd (9.34cm), fresh weight (818.57g) and dry weight of curd (72.09g) observed in V
2. Among spacing maximum diameter of curd(9.07cm), fresh weight (731.51g) and dry weight (82.93g)of curd observed in S
3.Maximum total curd yield (194.35q ha
