The harvest management studies on an improved lemongrass strain Jor Lab L2, were carried out at the farm of regional research Laboratory Jorhat during 1991-94. The crop was harvested at 60,70,80,90 and 100 days interval. Maximum oil yield was obtained when harvested at 90 days interval. The citral content ranged from 88 to 90% irrespective of crop age and harvesting schedule. Harvesting time has an important bearing on oil yield in Jor Lab L2. |
