Influence of Organic and Inorganic Fertilizer Regimes on Growth Patterns and Antioxidants Capacity of Strawberry (Fragaria × Ananassa Duch.) cv. Chandler

Fertilization, either in the form of organic or inorganic, always affects plant growth, yield, and nutritional quality fruit crops. Further, efficacy fertilizers depends on various factors, including area, climatic conditions, cultivars. Rawalakot has ideal conditions for growing strawberries. However, no studies related to impact different soil amendments growth habit strawberries have been conducted so far. Therefore, this study, combinations (farmyard manure (FYM) poultry (PM)) inorganic (urea) (N 150 kg/ha) were used comparison pattern postharvest strawberry cv. Chandler. The fertilizer regimes showed comparatively better results terms all parameters studied. plants grown soils amended with FYM equivalent 75 kg N per ha + PM 50 urea 41% 28% more survival percentage compared control. Furthermore, number leaves, flowers, fruits, yield significantly high soil. Moreover, a amount total soluble solids (10.0°Brix), titratable acidity (1.18%), ash (0.84%), fiber (3.03%), phenols (7.61 μg gallic acid/g fresh weight), flavonoids (7.93 mmol quercetin/100 g antioxidants (0.60 activity FeSO4 mg/g weight) was noted Similarly, combined treatment FYM, PM, also good as other well overall study revealed that dose could be potential maximum fruits strawberry.
