Abstract:

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of spacing and root trimming on growth and yield of water mimosa. The present study was carried out at the experimental field of College of Agriculture, Central Agricultural University, Iroisemba, Imphal, Manipur during kharif season, 2021. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with 9 spacings, Non-root trimming and Root trimming methods with three replications. The primary data on growth and yield of water mimosa cultivation was collected to study the growth and yield. The main finding on this study unveiled that the treatment S5T2 (4.5ft x 1.5ft with root trimming method) which is par with treatment S5T1 (4.5ft x 1.5ft without root trimming) has the maximum yield of all other treatments.


Keywords: Water mimosa, spacing, root trimming, growth and yield
