| dc.description.abstract | A field experiment was conducted to study the response of agronomic practices on galangal grown as intercrop in coconut garden during 1995 to 1998. Growth, yield characters and yield were superior when mother rhizome was used as planting material, whereas quality characters like oil and oleoresin contents did not differ significantly among mother rhizome and finger rhizome. Per cent reduction in yield under finger rhizome treatment was 2.1 per cent compared to mother rhizome treatment. Plant population level of 500000 per hectare (20 x 10 cm) recorded significantly superior rhizome yield as compared to 333000 population level, whereas quality characters were on par in both the population levels. The per cent reduction in the yield due to lower density population was 6.7 per cent. Growth, yield characters and yield were superior with farm yard manure + NPK combination followed by farm yard manure, vermicompost applied alone. Oil and oleoresin contents were significantly higher with farm yard manure + NPK, farm yard manure and vermicompost applied alone compared to composted coir pith application and control. | en_US |
