Abstract:

An investigation was carried out at Medicinal and Aromatic Plant Research Station Rajendranagar, Sri Konda Laxman Telangana State Horticultural University, Mulugu (V & M), Siddipet Dist., Telangana State during the period of 2017-20 to determine the effect of Nitrogen and Potassium fertilizers on growth, herbage and oil yield of Palmarosa in irrigation condition. The study was conducted with the application of different levels of Nitrogen i.e, 0kg/ha, 100kg/ha, 200kg/ha, different levels of potassium 0kg/ha, 61.5kg/ha, 123kg/ha. The parameters in terms of fresh herbage yield, oil yield were significantly differed with respect to the different dosage of Nitrogen and potassium. The maximum plant height (198.35cm), no. of tillers/clump (46.86), fresh herbage yield (44.98 t/ha), essential oil yield (4.78 ml/kg) were found in N3K3 while the minimum plant height, no. of tillers/clump, fresh herbage yield, essential oil yield were found in N1K1.
