Feb 1, 2025 · Pre-harvest bunch spray of Tracel + post-harvest hand dipping of 150 ppm GA 3 for a minute was the best with a maximum fruit shelf life of 15 days. The efficacy of the most promising treatment was further confirmed by an on-station trial at Jorhat during the rainy season of 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Jul 2, 2018 · Thus, the study clearly indicates that bunch feeding with 500 ml of cow dung slurry and 20 g of K2SO4 improves the yield parameters, post-harvest parameters and B: C ratio in banana cv. Rajapuri (Musa AAB).

To address this, a practice known as bunch trimming and feeding was carried out for retention of hands at different levels with simultaneous supplemental application of Potassium Nitrate to denavelled stalk end after fully opening of bunch.

In respect to shelf life, bunch feeding with 500g fresh cow dung + 7.5g Urea + 7.5g K2SO4 (T7) had attained the highest shelf life (7.67 days). It is evident from the study that there is a positive effect of bunch feeding on quality attributes and shelf life of banana.

Dec 24, 2023 · To address this, a practice known as bunch trimming and feeding was carried out for retention of hands at different levels with simultaneous supplemental application of Potassium Nitrate to...

ABSTRACT: Bananas are heavy feeders of nutrients and thus need balanced nutrition for optimum growth and fruit production and in turn obtain potential yields. Any deviation in the supply of nutrients at this crucial stage affects the bunch size and quality.

The results revealed that bunch feeding and bunch spraying has significantly influences the post -harvest and fruit quality parameters of tissue culture banana cv. Ney poovan.

Jun 23, 2021 · Selling in bunches is thus a win-win option for small- and medium-sized fruits such as tomatoes and blueberries. In addition to a prolonged shelf life and reduced harvest loss, they also sell at premium prices and satisfy consumer desire for novelty.

extended shelf life by bunch fed with sulphate of potash might be due to the lesser Physiological loss in weight experienced in fruits. Similarly, the extended shelf life was found in Ney Poovan banana by Ramesh and Kumar12,14 by spraying 1.5 % sulphate of potash, Kumar et al13., in Robusta, Nandan et
