| ABSTRACT
|
| |
| Study
on spacing of earthen cylinder as subirrigation for tomato planting
in sandy soil was conducted in Roi-et Land Development station in
Nampong series between Feb. and Aug. 1990 by using RCB design 5 treatments
and 4 replication T1 = conventional watering T2 = bury earthen cylinder
spacing 1 foot T3 = bury earthen cylinder spacing 2 feet T4 = bury
earthen cylinder spacing 3 feet T5 = bury earthen cylinder spacing
4 feet. |
| The result
showed that tomato buried with earthen cylinder spacing 2 feet gave
the maximum yields (3,047.93 kg/rai) and the moisture content was
10.42 % per week. While tomato buried with earthen cylinder spacing
1 foot yielded 2,847.81kg/rai and average moisture content was 12.92
% per week. But tomato with watering conventionally gave the lowest
yield at 2,012.84 kg/rai and average moisture content per week about
7.58 % |
