Abstract

The brinjal is a very important crop of Indian plains commonly grown throughout the year. A number of high yielding varieties and hybrids have been evolved to increase yield in this crop. In addition to improved cultivars, advances have also been made to develop cop management practices including fertilization, irrigation and weed control for boosting the productivity in this crop. Commercial cultivation of brinjal in hills is confined only to lower hills up to 1000-1200m altitude due to quick fall down of temperature in late Kharif and severe winter at higher altitudes (>15000m).
