Effects of varying NPSB fertilizer rates and intra-row spacing on growth and yield carrot (Daucus carota L.)

Carrot growth and yield could be impacted by optimum fertilizer application and plant spacing.The results of the present study indicated that the main effects of blended NPSB fertilizer and intra row spacing highly significantly influenced most of the growth and yield parameters. Furthermore, the interaction effects of both factors on harvest index, branched root, cracked root, marketable yield, unmarketable yield, total root yield, and total soluble solids were significant. Finally the result showed carrot production can be improved by application of both treatments and it is profitable.
