Abstract

The result revealed that San Andreas cultivars prevailed on the physiological response like relative chlorophyll content while Honeoye variety gave a better in partitioning coefficient and dry matter yield. San Andreas prevailed in fruit and fruit yield aspect where it accumulated 12.53 in average fruit weight. San Andreas also dominated with 18.84 in weight of marketable fruit, total yield with 21.16, and an ROI of 16.78.  T5 (RR + 100% N) was the highest ROI with 18.53 followed by T3 (RR + 50% N) with 16.25, T4 (RR + 75% N) with 15.29, T2 (RR + 25% N) with 12.40 and T1 (RR N) with 10.77, respectively. There was significantly identified on interaction between variety and nitrogen levels where it showed 14.65 result on the ROI. San Andreas variety in strawberry production in Claveria which is found to be favorable to the variety based on the relative chlorophyll content and its bigger yield compared to Honeoye.
