 ABSTRACT

Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) is the popular soft fruit and mainly grows in sub-tropical and hills at elevation of 3000 meters. It cultivated mainly in protected structure and produce best quality of fruits. In sub-tropic region strawberry require 20°-25° temperature maximum in day time and minimum 7° to 13° temperature at night time. As compare to all berries it gives early fruiting in short time ( Shailynti Lyngdoh et al. 2014). The strawberry rich source of nutrients content like protein, Ca, P and K. These contain less source of Vit-A, Bi, B2, Vit-C, Niacin and good source of antioxidant (Shailynti Lyngdoh et al. 2014). In India, strawberry is mainly cultivated in hilly area like Himachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal, parts of Uttar Pradesh and Kashmir valley. But, now days it is also cultivated in north plain zone of India like Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and some parts of Rajasthan. Maharashtra is the largest producer of strawberry in India. Now days, the production of strawberry is declined due to adverse climatic conditions viz. high temperature, low humidity and poor adaptation of agronomical practices. It requires more care and management as compare to the other crops. Because of its less adaption to the wider climatic conditions it requires controlled environment. Hence it increases the cost of cultivation. There is influence of different nutrients sources of the growth and yield of strawberry. Thus in this paper we reviewed about effect of different organic and inorganic sources on growth and yield attributes of strawberry.
