Abstract: A field experiment was laid out with Randomized Block Design (RBD) replicated thrice with eight treatments. The treatments were, T1 (control) [ FYM (25 t/ha) + RDF (150:120:100 kg NPK/ha], T2 (control + 0.1% Borax ), T3 (control + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate), T4 (control + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate), T5 (control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate), T6 (control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate), T7 (control + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate) and T8 (control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate). The result revealed that, for growth parameters T8 (T1 or control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate) was found to be the best. For yield attributes, T6 (T1 or control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate) and T8 (T1 or control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate + 0.2% Manganese Sulphate) were found to be the best. For quality parameters, T5 (T1 or control + 0.1% Borax + 0.2% Zinc Sulphate) was found to be the best with high dry matter content and less sugar.
