ABSTRACT
It was concluded that the plant growth and quality parameters are superior in wider spacing plots compared to traditional spacing plot (IJ spacing). Further, it was observed that superior and enhanced quality and quantity of mulberry leaf was produced in wider spacing. There was significant variation in plant population per acre area but leaf yield and quality was proved to be uniform .
Key words :
Micro irrigation, Mulberry, Leaf quality & production.
