Integrated Nutrient Management in Bottle gourd [Lagenariasiceraria (Mol) Standl.] Variety Kashi Ganga on the Plant Disease Incidence, TSS and Economics under Malwa condition of Madhya Pradesh

The investigation entitled, “Integrated Nutrient Management in Bottle gourd [Lagenariasiceraria (Mol) Standl.]  Variety Kashi Ganga on the Plant Disease Incidence,TSS and Economics  under Malwa condition of Madhya Pradesh”  was conducted during the Kharif season of the year 2019-20 in the Department of Horticulture, College of Agriculture, Indore (M.P.). The experiment conducted in randomized block design and replicated thrice. There were 15 treatments T0  No application of INM( Control), T8 50%NPK+50%Biofertilizer,T9 50%NPK+50%Humic acid, T10 50 % NPK+25% Vermicompost+25% Compost, T11 50% NPK+50% Vermicompost +Biofertilizer,T1250% NPK +25% Humic acid, T1350% NPK + 16.6% Vermicompost +16.6%Compost+16.6%Humicacid,T14 50% NPK+ 16.6% Vermicompost+ 16.6% Compost +16.6% Humic acid+ Biofertilizer. From the outcome, it can be concluded that the applied of different treatment combination of integrated nutrient management at proved to be effectively   minimizes the disease and insect incidence of bottle gourd. The data on the treatment in T10 (50%NPK+ 25%Vermicompost+25%Compost)(23.50 pest and 21.67 disease) was found most effective in minimum the red pumpkin beetle population and powdery mildew in the bottle gourd.. The similar treatment produced highest B:C(4.53). Bottle gourd fruit produce under integrated nutrient management exhibited significant differences on total soluble solids. TSS in fruits was range from 5.50 to 2.50 0 Brix.
