Maurya, K.R.Jha, R.C.2014-06-122014-06-121982Reprinted from: PLACROSYM-V : 1982 : pp. 499-503http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/2849Results of a trial to investigate the influence of population density and seed rhizome size on productivity in turmeric (Curcuma domestiea Val.) are reported. The productivity and seed requirement/1m are directly related to population density. The bulking effcacy is inversely related to population density. The profit potential attains a maximum at the population density of 1,11,000/ha. Similarly, profit potential is maximum when whole daughter rhizomes weighing around 2Sg are used as seed material followed by whole mother rhizomes weighing around 30g, and daughter rhizomes with 3 buds weighing around 20g.enArticle
