Abstract
The present investigation was undertaken with the main objective of utilization of vermiwash spray on growth and yield of radish cv. LOCAL VARIETY. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Completely Block Design with five treatments and four replications. The experiment consists of five treatments involving application of water and vermiwash in the proportion of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 and control were imposed and the foliar application was made by using knapsack sprayer in the evening hours twice at 15 and 30 days after sowing seeds. The data clearly revealed that the yield obtained with treatment T4 (100 % RDF as fertigation and vermiwash foliar twice times spray 1:4 at 15 and 30 days after sowing seeds) was significantly higher than all other treatments in growth and yield attributes such as ischolar_main diameter (5.53 cm), length (25.90 cm), weight (90.90 g), yield/plot (18.18 kg), yield/ha (60.59 t/ha) and marketable yield (45.45 t/ha) of radish cv. LOCAL VARIETY. Thus, it can be concluded that foliar spray of vermiwash (1:4) effective than control.
