abstract
Field experiments were carried out on different leafy vegetables during the Rabi seasons of 2018, 2019 and 2020 at Khar Land Research Station, Panvel, Dist. Raigad (Maharashtra) with the objective to assess performance of leafy vegetables under Coastal Saline Soil Condition of North Konkan region of Maharashtra state. The experiment was laid out in 4 time replicated randomized block design, assigning 5 leafy vegetables, viz. Spinach, Fenugreek, Coriander, Radish and Amaranths. From three years pooled data revealed that among the different leafy vegetables, the Spinach recorded significantly higher yield (69.94 q ha-1) than the rest of the vegetables except Radish crop (56.14 q ha-1) which was at par with it, lowest yield was recorded from coriander (38.05 q ha-1). The maximum productivity and profitability efficiency was noted in Radish which were 140.35 kg/ha/day and Rs. 899.13/ha/day respectively.
