2009
Kushwaha, M.L.
The present investigation was undertaken to study the effect of spacing and various level of nitrogen on growth and seed yield of carrot var. Nantes during 2004-05 and 2005-06 at V.C.S.G. College of Horticulture Bharsar, Pauri Garhwal. It was concluded that the characters i.e. plant height, number of branches per plant, number of umbels per plant and number of seeds per umbel increased significantly with increasing level of nitrogen from 0 to 100 kg/ ha. As far as the row spacing concerned, the above growth characters showed different responses. The medium row spacing (45x45 cm) in combination with 100kg N/ha gave significantly higher yield during both the years of investigation. The spacing 45x45cm with 100kg N/ha was found to be best combination for increasing the seed production of carrot.
