Abstract

The work done and results achieved on the agronomic/management aspects of arecanut is reviewed. The studies relate to standardisation of nursery practices and field experiments to find out the long range requirements of the crop. Nursery trials have given sufficient information on the correct technique of raising arecanut seedlings. The long duration experiments have indicated the optimum cultural, spacing, irrigation and N, P, K requirements of the crop. The inter and mixed cropping trials have shown useful results.
