Abstract
The effect of N and K and their lime of application in coleus revealed that N at the rate
of 60 kg/ha was sufficient to produce higher tuber yield, high dry matter yield, maximum bulking
rate and maximum utilisation index. Highest yield of tuber and highest dry matter yield per ha
were obtained at the rate of 120kg foO/ha. Split application of nutrients was found to be the best
method for obtaining higher weight of marketable tubers, higher tuber yield per plant, maximum
dry matter yield and highest tuber yield.
