The effect of different mulching materials on quality of strawberry cv. CAMAROSA was studied during the year 2015-2016 with eight treatments replicated thrice in Randomized Block Design. The treatments comprised of coconut husk, black polyethylene, paddy straw, card board sheets, dried banana leaves, paddy husk, silver polyethylene and no mulch (Control). Among the treatments paddy straw recorded maximum TSS (8.83 0Brix), juice% (83.05%), specific gravity (1.15 g/cm3), vitamin-C content (58.88 mg/100g), total sugars (9.50%) and minimum physiological loss in weight (13.5% at 1 DAH and 25.30% at 2 DAH), titrable acidity (0.61%) and very less Albinism disorder (0.28%) as compared to other mulching treatments and control.Keywords

Studies were carried out to evaluate the effect of different mulching materials on growth and yield of strawberry cv. CAMAROSA having eight treatments with three replications in Randomized Block Design duing the year 2015-2016. The treatments comprised of coconut husk, black polyethylene, paddy straw, card board sheets, dried banana leaves, paddy husk, silver polyethylene and no mulch (control). All the mulching treatments significantly contributed in improving the vegetative growth and yield of strawberry over unmulched plants. Paddy straw mulch gave the best results in terms of increasing plant spread (46.06 cm), number of runners per plant (28.36), number of leaves per plant (42.56), leaf area per plant (7621.08 cm2), number of flowers per plant (61.66), number of days taken for fruiting (51.48 d), number of fruits per plant (35.46), fruit weight (5.00 g), fruit diameter (2.77 cm) and fruit yield (5.82 tonnes per ha). Silver polythene mulch also performed well and showed at par result with that of paddy straw for all the parameters. Black polythene mulch showed the minimum values under hot and humid climate of Andhra Pradesh Thus mulch treatment with paddy straw was proved to be the best for cultivation of strawberry under shade net conditions for tropical regions especially coastal Andhra Pradesh conditions.Keywords
