Abstract

Field experiment was laid out for two years at Horticulture Research Centre of Sardar Vallabh bhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut during 2006–07 and 2007–08 to study the response of different sources of fertilizers on the growth parameters in guava (Psidium guajava L). Significant Improvement in growth parameters (plant height, spread, and stem girth and tree volume) was recorded with the application of 800:600:600 g NPK+ 25.00 kg FYM per tree per year (T7) which was at par with T8 treatment.
