Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of transplanting dates and mulching on fruit characters, yield and quality of tomato. Among the different dates of transplanting, early planting (5th November) recorded highest fruit yield and it was vice-versa in case of late transplanting date (15th December). Moreover, seedlings of Gujarat Tomato-2 mulched with black polythene (50 micron) recorded higher number of fruits (29.92), fruit weight (43.57 g), total (45.26 t/ha) and marketable fruit yield (44.21 t/ha).
