Effect of different Spacing and Phosphorus levels on growth and yield parameters of Mungbean under guava based Agri-horti System

A field experiment was conducted during the Kharif season of 2017-18 to find out suitable management practices to manage Agri-horticulture system under Psidiumguajava based agroforestry system. Suitability of experiment was based on yield of Mungbean. The yield attributes i.e pods/plant; pod length,no. of seeds/pod, seed yield; biological yield and harvest index were significantly influenced by distance and phosphorus levels. The seed yield of mungbean was significantly affected by tree management practices imposed to PsidiumguajavaL. Seed yield as affected by distance from tree was found significant in D2(2m away from tree 762kg/ha) recorded significantly higher than D1 ( 1.5m away from tree 680 kg/ha) in mungbean. Seed yield as affected by phosphorus levels were also significant. F1(60kg p2o5 + PSB culture) they were found significantly superior than remaining phosphorus levels. Lowest seed yield was recorded in F5 (controlled condition). Interaction between distance from tree and phosphorus level was found significant. The seed yield of mungbean significantly higher with combination of 2m away from tree at 60kg/ha of P2O5with PSB culture.
