Abstract

A field experiment was carried out at college farm of Udai Pratap College, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh during 2015-16 to Effect of Integrated Nutrient Management on yield and productivity of Green gram crop with six treatments i.e. T1 (Control), T2 (100% NPK), T3 (75% NPK +5t FYM ha-1 + Biofertilizer (PSB+Rhizobium), T4 (50% NPK+5t FYM ha-1+ Bio-fertilizer), T5 (10t FYM ha-1 + Bio-fertilizer) and T6 (10t Vermicompost ha-1 + Bio-fertilizer). The plant growth parameters were taken at 30, 45 and 60 days after sowing. Plant height, no. of leaves & pod form, no. of branches, root nodules yield of grain and stoves were maximum found in T3 followed by T4 than T2. The application of NPK through inorganic source with FYM and vermicompost significantly increased to yield attributes at all level of fertilizer. Thus integrated application of inorganic and organic source (Vermicompost + FYM) maximized yield of green gram.
