EFFECT OF SPRAYING AGROSOL AND ENRAIZAL ON TOMATO PRODUCTION AND QUALITY

Abstract

To enhance tomato Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. Elisan hybrid production and quality, this experiment was undertaken at the vegetable field Horticulture and landscape department/Agriculture College/Baghdad University, that was in spring 2013, plants spraying four times two week interference, Agrosol (Ag) spraying with 0, 3, and 6 g L-1 and Enraizal (En) with 0, 2 and 4 ml L-1 with interaction, 9 treatment was adopted, RCBD with three replicate at 16 plant for each treatment was adopted, ,means compared under 0.05 probability, Ag3+En2 increased plant leaf, leaf area at 213.5 leaf.plant-1 and leaf area at 122.85dcm2.plant-1 as compared with control treatment, Dry vegetative weight increased at 342 g.plant-1 in Ag6+En2 treatment, higher total chlorophyll at 304.4 mg.100g-1 in Ag6+En4, fruit number, plant yield and total yield at plant-1, 299,7 mg 100g-1, 31.13 fruit plant-1, 2.673 kg plant-1 and 84.87ton ha-1 respectively, Nitrogen percentage was increased in Ag6+En0 at 1.82% as compared with 1.20% in control treatment, Ag3+En0 treatment increased phosphorus percentage at 0.44% as compared with 0.24% in control treatment, Ag3+En4 treatment increased potassium percentage at 2.36% as compared with 1.23% in control treatment, higher fruit weight in Ag3+En0, Beta-carotene and TSS increased in Ag3+En2, lycopen increased in Ag6+En4, acidity increased Ag3+En4 and Ag6+En0 treatment, it was concluded from these results that Agrosol and Enraizal enhanced most yield and quality characters, Ag3+En2 treatment significantly increased most studying characters.
