Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2008-09 to assess the response of fertilizer application schedule for tomato under polytunnel. After investigation, it was found that the application of 100 % fertigation of RDF significantly improved tomato qualities in respect of the average fruit weight, total soluble salts and acidity of tomato. Whereas highest residual nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium in soil after harvest of crop was observed with soil application of RDF with surface irrigation.
