Abstract

A study was carried out for two successive years (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) in the Research Farm of Vegetable Science, Dr YSP, UHF, Nauni, Solan, HP. The maximum value for number of flower clusters per plant (12.64), number of fruits per cluster (6.51), fruit weight (80.47 g), number of fruits per plot (140.71 kg) and yield per hectare (992.94 q) were obtained in treatment module P1M1T1 (raised bed, black polythene mulch and two stem training system). Pericarp thickness (4.99 mm), TSS (5.10 degree Brix) and lycopene content (6.42 mg per 100 g of fresh fruit) was also found best for the same treatment combination. The incidence of buckeye rot (3.46 %) and Alternaria leaf bight (2.80 %) was minimum in P1M1T1 (raised bed, black polythene mulch and two stem training system). The treatment combination P1M1T1 (raised bed, black mulch and two stem training system) also produced highest cost benefit ratio (3.84 %).
