Evaluation of integrated nutrient management on Seed quality parameters of field pea

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: Seed quality plays an important role in the crop establishment and overall performance of the crop. The present research study was conducted at the Seed testing laboratory of Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh in 2015-2016. The data of research study revealed that the combination effect of inorganic fertilizers and biofertilizers were significant on seed quality parameters of field pea in which the treatment T5 (100% RDF + Rhizobium@20g/kg seed) exhibited higher mean value for seed germination percentage (92.25 %), Root length (11.74 cm), Shoot length (10.48 cm), Seedling length (22.06 cm) and Seedling Vigour Index (2039.24) and minimum value was exhibited by T3 (Pseudomonas@20g/kg seed) with respect of Germination percentage (84.50%), T0 (control) with respect of Root length (9.26cm), Shoot length(8.53cm) and Seedling length(18.63cm), T6 (100% RDF + Pseudomonas@20 kg/seed) with respect of Seedling Vigour Index(1623.18).
