Abstract: The results of field experiment conducted in 1997 98 and 1998 99 revealed that application of organic ma nure improved yield attributes, grain and straw yields of wheat (Triicum aestivum L. emend. Fiori Paol.). Applica tion of Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czernj. Cosson] siliquae straw compost at 10 tonneslha yielded at par with 10 tonneslha FYM in wheat. Integration of compost or FYM at 10 tonneslha with 90 kg Nlha resulted maximum grain and straw yields of wheat. Significantly higher uptake of N and P in grain as well as straw was ob tained with the application of 90 kg N 10 tonnes mustard siliquae straw compost or FYMIha compared to other treatments. The:.ysages of mustard siliquae straw compost or FYM with or without fertilizer nitrogen in wheat en hanced succeeding mungbean (Phaseolus radiatus L.) yield and N and P uptake over the control and 90 kg Nlha. Analysis of soil after harvesting the mungbean crop showed a significant build up of organic carbon and an increa se in available P in the plots treated with N and farmyard manure or mustard siliquae straw compost.
