The Effect of Different Harvest Date on the Quality and Yield of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of different harvest date on the quality and yield of stevia has been studied in the open field. The results showed that if the stevia was harvested at 65-85 days after transplanted, not only the yield was lower, but also the total content of glycosides of stevia and the content of Rebaudioside A (RA) and Stevoiside (STV) were lower. And the stevia harvested at 105 days after transplanted had similar results to that harvested at 65-85 days after transplanted. The results from the analysis to all the records of this experiment were that stevia could get the best quality and yield if they were harvested at 95 days after transplanted.
