ABSTRACT
Silkworm, Bombyx mori derives its nutrition from type of mulberry leaf grown in different types of soil, planting system , spacing , irrigation and type of organic and inorganic manure application and chemical fertilizer dose. The leaf harvested from different types of package of practice influence on leaf yield of mulberry inturn cocoon crop per 100dfls. The data on surveyed area in Chikkaballapur and Kolar district on cocoon yield of different category of stone house noticed significant difference. The data revealed that, even though farmers not adopted and applied optimum quantity of FYM and chemical fertilizer the yield kg/100 dfls varied from 53-70, 54-68 and 68-72 kg/100dfls recorded in first (9.14×3.04-12.19×6.10 m), second (12.19×6.10-15.24×9.14 m) and third (15.24×9.14 – 18.28×12.19 ft) respectively. Further, application of FYM (5t/acre) (12.35 t/ha) along with Complex 100 kg/acre (247 t/ha) revealed significantly higher cocoon yield (68 kg) and supported by stone house. Application of FYM and Urea to mulberry also revealed cocoon yield of 70 kg/100 dfls as reflected as additive effect. It is very much clearly indicated that, the organic manure application (5 t/acre) (12.35 t/ha) and urea +Complex (120 kg/acre) (296.4 t/ha) revealed cocoon yield of 70 kg/100 dfls which is very close to application of FYM (5 kg/acre) (12.35 t/ha) + Complex (50 kg/acre) (123.5 t/ha) resulted 72 kg/100 dfls. It is very much concluded from the data that, application of organic manure with complex resulted higher cocoon yield /100 dfls in all the categories of stone houses of Chikkaballapur and Kolar district of Karnataka.
