Abstract

A suitable planting date is necessary for effective Jerusalem artichoke production to ensure good yield in areas where Jerusalem artichoke has never been planted. Objective of this research was to study influence of planting date on growth and yield of Jerusalem artichoke. The study took place at department of Plant Production Technology, Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resource, Rajamangala University of Technology Tawan-ok. The experiment was carried out in factorial design in CRD with four replications. Two factors included 1) five planting dates (from the 10th of February to June), and 2) four varieties of Jerusalem artichoke. The results showed statistical significant difference among planting dates for growth and yield of Jerusalem artichokes. Faster first flowering, 50% flowering and harvest date were found when growing Jerusalem artichokes in March. Jerusalem artichoke gave high fresh tuber yield when growing in March to May. In addition, growing in February gained the highest Brix. Genotype, CN52867 gave the highest yield and sweetness.
