Study of Yield and Quality Response of Coriander For Fertigation and Irrigation Levels Under Drip Irrigation System

Abstract

The experiment was conducted on coriander in sandy loam soil at Experimental Farm of LPU, Punjab. The experiment consist of the three irrigation treatments viz, I₁(1.0 ET_C), I₂(0.80 ET_C) and I₃(0.60 ET_C) and two nitrogen fertigation treatmentsF₁(100 % RDF) and F₂(75 % RDF) with four replication arranged on split plot design. Significant superior plant height (52.50 cm), number of branches (8.67), seed yield per plant (216.25 kg/ha), grain yield (1602.50 kg/ha) , biological yield (3569 kg/ha) and  HI(0.45 per cent)was found in treatment combination I₂F₁(1.0 ET_c and 100 % RDF) through drip irrigation systems, followed by treatment combination I₂F₂, respectively.
