Abstract: The present investigations entitled “Growth and yield of Kinnow mandarin in response to fertigation†was carried out in the Horticultural Garden, Bihar Agricultural University, Sabour, Bhagalpurduring the year 2016-2018. The experiment was laid down in Randomized Block Design with 5treatments and 4 replications. The study comprises of one experiment in which Kinnow trees underinvestigation were subjected to different level of fertigation, viz. T1- 120% of RDF as fertigation; T2- 100% of RDF as fertigation; T3- 80% of RDF as fertigation; T4- 60% of RDF as fertigation; T5- 100% of RDF as soil application. The results revealed that the application of fertigation with NPK at the dose of 120% RDF (600:288:288g/plant/year) gave the highest increase in plant height (87.69 cm), stem girth (6.23cm), canopy volume (70.22cm3) and yield (12.64 Kg/tree) of Kinnow tree under high density planting condition. Hence, treatment 120% RDF as fertigation can be recommended under Sabour, Bihar, India agro-climatic conditions to get high economic returns.
