Effect of integrated nutrient management on soil fertility, yield and quality of Greengram [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek]

Type: article
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during kharif season of 2014 on clay loam soil to study the effect of fertility and biofertilizer levels on soil fertility, yield and quality of greengram. Results indicated that application of 100% RDF + VC @ 2 t/ha significantly increases the dry matter accumulation, number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pod, seed, haulm and biological yield, protein content, net returns and remained at par with the application of 75% RDF + VC @ 2 t/ha over 75% RDF. But seed inoculation with Rhizobium and PSB significantly increases the dry matter accumulation, number of pods/plant, number of seeds/pod, seed, haulm and biological yield, protein content and net returns over rest of treatments. However, the test weight unchanged under different levels of fertility and biofertilizers.
