Abstract

Excessive chemical fertilizers could lead to chemical toxicity in major root crops and inhibit their growth and development. Radish is one of the well-known root crops and its popularity could be due to its wider climatic adaptation, easy cultivation methods, and a wider range of its uses. A field experiment was conducted in Taranagar-5, Kailali from Sept-Nov, 2021 to evaluate the influences of different organic manures on the growth and yield of radish. Mino’s early variety of radish was used as a test crop. The experiment was set up in RCBD Design with seven treatments (FYM 30t/ha, Poultry manure 20t/ha, Mustard cake 4t/ha, FYM 15t/ha + Poultry Manure 10t/ha, FYM 15t/ha + Poultry Manure 10t/ha + Mustard Cake 4t/ha, FYM 15t/ha+ Poultry Manure 10t/ha + Mustard Cake 2t/ha and control) and were replicated 3 times. The results revealed that all the growth attributes and yield were significantly enhanced by the application of organic manures. At the time of harvest, significantly higher plant height (46.21cm) was obtained in mustard cake followed by FYM 15t/ha + Poultry manure 10t/ha, a maximum number of leaves per plant (25.53) in mustard application followed by FYM 15ton/ha+ PM10ton/ha + MOC 4ton/ha, root diameter (4.08cm), root length (31.40cm), total dry weight per plant (38.99gm) and biological yield (97.24t/ha) was observed in treatment consisting mustard cake followed by FYM 15ton/ha+ PM10ton/ha + MOC 2ton/ha. The study suggested that the application of mustard cake was found more beneficial and significantly improved the growth and yield of radish.
