Abstract :
A field trial was displayed in (1x1 Sq.M.)
micro plots during winter season (2008-09 and 2009-10)
to study effect of neem product Bioneem and
nitrogenous fertilizer (Urea) on growth, dry matter no.
of tomato fruits, yield and nutrients availability.
Experiment was conducted in factorial randomized
block design (RBD) by varying levels of Bioneema (viz.,
B0 (control), B3, (20 Kgha-l
), B2 (40 Kgha-l
), and B1 (60
Kgha-1
) and Nitrogen N. (Control) N, (50 Kgha-1
) and N2
(100 Kghal-1
). It is quite obvious that treatment B2N1 (40
kg Bioneema + 50 Kghn N) through Urea brought about
significant improvement in height, No of branches of
tomato plants at various successive stages in (2008-09
and 2009-2010) at 90 DAT where B3N, (T10) significantly
enhanced the no. of branches. It is further revealed that
treatment Ts (B2N) registered a tremendous increase in
Drymatter % in first year while T10 (B3N0) showed
better result in second year. Likewise T12(B3N2)
significantly increased the no. of fruits while T11 (B3N1)
enhanced in second year. The Treatment T9 (B2N2)
responded well in enhancing the fruit yield in first year
whereas T3 (B0N2) improved the fruit yield
(5-11 Kg. per plot). The uptake of nutrients i.e. N,
Protein, P, Mg and Fe contents in general influenced
significantly by bioneema and nitrogenous fertilizer
(Urea). The uptake of nutrients was virtually higher in
tomato plants of B2N2 and B3N1treatments in first year
than that of second year.
It is inferred from the foregoing observations that
less amount of N fertilizer along with Neem product is
quite beneficial for plants growth, yield as well as disease
resistance.
