Abstract
A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of plastic tunnel and mulching on growth and yield of strawberry. Use of plastic tunnel along with control (without tunnel) were taken as main factors and mulching materials, viz. black polyethylene, transparent polyethylene and straw mulch as sub-factors and laid out in split plot design replicated four times. Use of plastic tunnel resulted into significantly higher plant spread, dry matter accumulation and yield attributing characters compared to control. Further, plastic tunnel enhanced earliness by 16 days besides 19 percent higher yield over control. Among different mulching materials, black polyethylene mulch was found most suitable and resulted into 41 percent higher fruit yield compared to straw mulch.
