ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2018-19 on broccoli, cv. F1 hybrid Farm Sona at Horticultural Research farm, Department of Horticulture, SHUATS Prayagraj (Uttar Pradesh), India. Different levels of concentrations (25, 50 and 75 ppm) of foliar application of Plant growth regulators namely GA3 and Kinetin along with control was conducted to see its effects on the crop. After 20 days of transplanting, foliar application was conducted at an interval of two days. The various effects on the growth, yield and quality of the crop was observed by the foliar application of GA3, Kinetin and the combination of both GA3 25 ppm and Kinetin 50 ppm proves to be most effective among rest of the treatments.
