Abstract
A study was conducted at the Agriculture and Forestry University, Rampur, Chitwan during the winter season, to find out the suitable transplanting dates and spacing for quality seed production of broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. italica) Cv. Calabrese. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications, where main plot treatment consisted of transplanting dates (November 1, November 15 and November 30) and sub plot treatment consisted of spacing (60 cm × 50 cm, 60 cm × 60 cm, 60 cm × 75 cm). Since transplanting time and spacing affect vegetative traits, which are very important for seed yield. The highest seed yield (1.09 mt./ha) was obtained with November 1st planting at the spacing of 60 cm × 50 cm. So that transplanting date of November 1st with spacing 60 cm × 50 cm is better for seed production of broccoli in plain areas of Chitwan, Nepal.
尼泊尔Chitwan地区花椰菜(Brassica oleracea var. italica Plenck)移栽日期和间距对种子产量的影响
为确定花椰菜(Brassica oleracea var. italica) Cv.的优质种子生产的适宜移栽日期和株距,在Chitwan Rampur的农林大学进行了冬季研究。花茎甘蓝。试验采用3个重复的分割小区设计,其中主小区处理为移栽日期(11月1日、11月15日和11月30日),子小区处理为间距(60 cm × 50 cm、60 cm × 60 cm、60 cm × 75 cm)。移栽时间和移栽间距对种子产量有重要影响。11月1日播种时,种植间距为60 cm × 50 cm,种子产量最高,为1.09 mt / hm2。因此,在尼泊尔奇旺平原地区,以11月1日插秧60 cm × 50 cm为宜。
