Balanced Fertilization in Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) for Higher Yield and Quality

Influence of Different Levels of Irrigation and Fertilizers on Yield and Cost Economics of Papaya (cv. Red Lady) under Open and Protected Condition

“…The absorption pattern of different nutrients by plants is varies greatly among the plant species and also their age and growth stages. Similar result was reported by Kumar et al, (2010).…”

“…There was a congenial weather parameter especially temperature, humidity and reduced wind velocity under protected condition might favored plant to superior growth and yield. Similar result was reported by Kumar et al, (2010), Mallikarjun (2009) and Vinayakumar Reddy et al, (2011).…”

“…In the present study, the plant receiving treatment I 3 F 2 50%, 80% and 100% E pan +100 and 125 per cent RDF recorded higher number of fruits per plant, fruit yield per plant and fruit yield per hectare over rest of the treatments but, it was at par with treatment I 3 F 3 50%,80% and 100% E pan + 125 and 150 per cent RDF and also due to adequate supply of water and reduced weed growth might have resulted in more number of fruits and higher fruit yield of papaya plant under drip irrigation. Similar results were reported by (Kumar et al, 2010, Mahalakshmi et al, 2001b, Mallikarjun, 2009and Vinayakumar Reddy et al, 2011.…”

“…Under polyhouse conditions, the management of this vector is much easier when compared to other sucking pests like whitefly. For example, in Gerbera a popular commercial crop grown in polyhouse, once infested by whitefly it multiplies so rapidly that no amount of plant protection measures could prevent its spread as reported by many workers (Yadav et al, 2011, Kumar et al, 2010.…”

Producción y manejo del cultivo de papaya (Carica papaya L.)

“…en México y observaron que la producción económica óptima se llevó a cabo cuando se aplicó cantidades de N de 220 kg ha-1. Kumar et al (2010) estudiaron el efecto de los niveles de N, P y K sobre el crecimiento y la producción de papaya en cuatro localidades en la India. Encontraron que una aplicación anual balanceada de 300 g/planta de N, P y K produjo los rendimientos más altos.…”
