Effect of Different Biostimulants on Growth, Yield and Quality of Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) under Prayagraj Agro Climatic Conditions

An experiment was carried out to study the “Effect of different biostimulants on growth, yield and quality chilli (Capsicum annuum L) under prayagraj agro climatic conditions” during August, 2022 January 2023 at Horticulture Research Farm, Department Horticulture, Naini Agriculture Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology Sciences. The had eleven treatments replicated thrice in a randomized block design. It concluded that application rendered their significant effect almost all growth characters as well chilli. Treatments were given with concentrations biostimulant products such Escort @ 1, 1.5, 2 2.5 ml per litre, Cheetha 2, 3 litre Baanam 45 ,60 75 days after transplanting whereas water sprayed control plants. treatment T7 i.e. product ml/l found superior terms plant height (64.39 cm), spread (61.5cm), number branches (8.11), flowers cluster (11.77), fruits (79.33), fruit length (12.77cm), girth (2.47cm), weight(4.29g), plant(395.67g), plot(2.37 kg), hectare (14.67t/ha) ,Total Soluble Solids (oBrix) (4.97),Ascorbic acid content (144.67 mg/100g) minimum taken for first flowering (51.67 days) 50% flowering(56.67 days). Among treatments, highest Gross return (Rs/ha) (2,93,000), Net (1,67,137), benefit cost ratio (2.32) also obtained from (T7), is ml/l.
