It is amongst the few crops, which give quick and very high
returns per unit area on capital investment. GA3 has been found
to increase the vegetative growth of strawberry; Cycocel and
NAA improved the yield and quality of strawberry (Thakur et
al., 1991). Strawberry is a temperate fruit; its production in
tropical and subtropical region is drastically low and the market
price high. Due to these bottlenecks, the poor people cannot
afford it and also farmers seldom go for its cultivation. Keeping
this in view, the present studies on strawberry was carried out
at department of Fruit science and Horticultural technology,
College of Agriculture under the Orissa University of
Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Odisha to find out
suitable growth hormone and its concentration for commercial
production of good quality strawberry under tropical condition.
