Effect of Different Micronutrients on Economics of Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. Italica) cv. Green Magic under Polyhouse Condition

A field experiment was conducted to study of “Impact of foliar spray of micronutrients on growth, yield and quality of broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica) under polyhouse condition” during the Rabi 2020-21 season under Department of Vegetable Science at the “Center of Excellence on Protected Cultivation and Precision Farming”, IGKV, Raipur (C.G.). The experiment consisting of 10 treatments viz., copper sulphate @ 0.20%, copper sulphate @ 0.40%, copper sulphate @ 0.60%, boric acid @ 0.20%, boric acid @ 0.40%, boric acid @ 0.60%, zinc sulphate @ 0.20%, zinc sulphate @ 0.40% and zinc sulphate @ 0.60%. Experiment was carried out with completely randomized design with ten treatments and three replications. Economic study showed that highest cost of cultivation (180,735 Rs/ha) with T3-copper sulphate @ 0.60% while maximum gross income (471,720 Rs/ha), net income (292,325 Rs/ha) and B:C ratio (2.62) was observed with T5- boric acid @ 0.40%.
