Effect of Organic Sources and Fertilizer Levels on Physiological Response of Garlic by Using Infrared Gas Analysis (IRGA) in Western Rajasthan, India
Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: Crop growth and yields are negatively affected by sub-optimal water supply and abnormal temperatures due to physical damages, physiological disruptions, and biochemical changes. A better understanding of garlic responses to organic and inorganic sources conducted A two years field experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Farm, SKRAU, Bikaner during Rabi 2020-21 and 2021-22. The experiment comprising total 32 treatment combinations; eight sources of organic materials (Control (M0), FYM @ 20 t ha-1 (M1), Groundnut husk (GNH) @ 20 t ha-1 (M2), Wool waste (WW) @ 20 t ha-1 (M3), FYM @ 10 tha-1 + GNH @ 10 t ha-1 (M4), WW @ 10 t ha-1 + GNH @ 10 t ha-1 (M5), WW @ 10 t ha-1 + FYM @ 10 t ha-1 (M6), WW @ 6.67 t ha-1 + FYM @ 6.67 t ha-1 + GNH @ 6.67 t ha-1 (M7) and four fertilizer levels (Control (F0), 50% RDF (F1), 75% RDF (F2) and 100% RDF (F3) in split plot design with three replications. Result indicated that maximum improvement in photosynthetic rate was recorded under the wool waste applied @ 20 t ha-1 with 100% recommended dose of fertilizer.
