Effect of Cropping Systems and Integrated Nutrient Management on Growth and Yield of Coconut in Littoral Sand

An experiment was carried out in a 38 years old coconut plantation of Sakhigopal Local Tall variety at All India Coordinated Research Project on palms, Konark (OUAT) during July 2017 to June 2019. The treatments comprised three cropping system and integrated nutrient management practices. laid Split Plot Design with replications. studies revealed that adoption + sapota pineapple application green manuring biofertilizers organic recycling soil test based nutrients NPK (chemical fertilizers) significantly increase the number female flowers (245.83/palm/year), nut yield (65.21/palms/year), weight whole (1206.54 g), dehusked (603.01 kernel (293.41 g) copra (168.33 g). Similarly minimum flowers, yield, were recorded treatment combination monocrop recycling. study indicated are suitable for better growth development coconut.
