Protected cultivation has been found beneficial for off season production and removing seasonality barrier in vegetable production. There is always a large and sustained demand of fresh vegetables round the year in all places especially in big cities. But, growing vegetables in open and natural environment is season bound especially when the temperatures are extreme (35-400C during summer and 12-150C during winter). Therefore, standardizing the production technologies like spacing and pruning for maximizing the productivity of capsicum is a pre-requisite. The study revealed that the maximum yield (125.82 t/ha) was recorded at 60 x 60 cm with pruning of all the primary branches after two nodes was optimum. The cost benefit ratio was 1:2.3.
