| Abstract | An experiment was conducted comprising seven fertilizer treatments viz., T = N P K , 1 810 465 375 T = N P K , T = N P K , T = N P K , T = N P K , T = N P K , T = native fertility and 20 2 675, 390 310 3 540 310 250 4 400 230 185 5 270 155 125 6 0 0 0 7 kg cowdung manure per pillar containing four plants was applied for all the treatments except T , at Hill 7 Agricultural Research Station, Raikhali, Chandraghona, Kaptai, Rangamati Hill District, Bangladesh during two consecutive years 2011-12 and 2012-13 to recommend the proper NPK fertilizer dose for higher yield and quality of dragon fruit in Chittagong Hill Tracts. There were significant differences in terms of plant height, plant circumference, number of fruits, average individual fruit weight, fruit size, TSS, edible portion and fruit yield. The maximum number of fruits per pillar (50.00), average individual fruit weight (316.40 g), fruit length (9.27 cm), fruit breadth (7.81 cm) and fruit yield (31.64 t/ha) were observed in T. The minimum number of fruits 3 per pillar (27.00), average individual fruit weight (241.80 g) and fruit yield (12.88 t/ha) was found in native fertility (T ). The highest TSS (16.09%) was recorded in native fertility (T ) and lowest (13.38%) in T. 7 71 |
