Impact of fertigation levels on economics of hybrid tomato production
Abstract
An experiment was carried out to study the effect of fertigation levels on economics of hybrid tomato production at Instructional Farm of Department of Irrigation and Drainage Engineering, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola. during the rabi season of 2023-24 and 2024-25. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with five treatments which include four drip fertigation levels (120%, 100%, 80% and 60% of RDF) and control treatment of traditional fertilization at 100% RDF. These all treatments are replicated four times. Benefit-cost ratio was observed maximum for treatment T1 (120% RDF).
